I really like this egg. the Egg is just messin' with my mind...you think I'm there...but i'm not, i'm just a couple of shaded patches on a white piece of paper. the one question i have is...are the tones right? I'm not trying to critique your drawing, i am simply amazed by the tone on the egg and the shadow. Were they really the same like that? egg-salant (egg salad) work!
this was actually a lot darker in my sketch book. what happened? the shadow on the right seemed to be a little further back, i think. but it was hard to draw. i had it against my sketch book and the lamp was on one side and the fire light from the fire place on the other. it did something funny to the shadows. and it was late...give me some credit, at least i got it done. ;)
Any object with two light sources has a complex system of shadows. I like your drawing. And the idea of firelight as a light source is intriguing. I assume it was a bit jumpy and moving. Nice job.

ReplyDeleteThis looks like an image that was created with four strokes of a pigment-stained thumb.

ReplyDeletePS Wonderful "lost edge"! I almost missed it. That's part of the fun of lost edges--our brain will always complete it.
