WIP - Graphite Artifact - The Waves

in #abstract5 years ago (edited)


Newly started graphite artifact !

That fresh start is welcome while fighting with small details on more advanced projects, like "the Diagnosis Tree".



This one has born in my head since a long time, with the idea of some sort sea made out of solid metallic waves. I usually let the drawing build itself, but this time I'll try to keep abit more control over the progression.

Like with the "Diagnosis Tree", I've decided to apply a tint over the fiberboard surface before drawing. This time it will be blueish/greenish.

Surface is a bit different than what I'm used to : 80/40cm. We'll see how I'll manage this horizontal format.

The first steps ran flawlessly, and I didn't think about taking pictures of the progress. Sorry for that :)

I can only share that short timelapse video filmed this afternoon during the second work session.


That's all for today,

Have fun :)

Beautiful, @berien :) The curves and shading are delicate and dreamy, I love its progress so far ! I hope you will remember to take some progress pictures from here onwards! Definitely looking forward to seeing this finished <3

I wonder why you have titled it "Artifact".... hmmm, maybe I will be able to understand the title once I can get to see more of this piece :)

Thanks @veryspider :D
"Graphite Artifacts" is the name I've given to these surreal/abstract drawings. Suggested by a friend and adopted when I heard it... This was close to the idea I had about strange items that would be brung back from imaginary trips in some imaginary lands :)
(and now I've realized I've forgotten the word 'graphite' in my title :p fixed)

I like watching you work at it in the short video. And the objects that you created are very shapely and elegant. Nice waves :).

Thanks a lot @scrawly :)
