11"x14" bristol paper. Took me 6-7 hours.
Recently won a First place, Best of Division, and Best of Show in the adult division at the Gold Country Fair.
Hi Nancy!
You are really good!!!
How did you get the background so black?
Your other drawings are awsome too.
See you, Amy :)
Artist Reply: Hey Amy!! The backround might have been darkened a little bit by the camera I took this with. I used 2-ply bristol paper and a mechanical pencil with 2B lead, I'm guessing it's the softer lead that does it (I used a whole piece of lead on the backround just by itself!). Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment!!
