Pencil drawing – Still Life
This one’s from a long time ago! I don’t even know how long.

This one’s from a long time ago! I don’t even know how long.

This one is probably from last year. I was trying out my fancy gray markers.

This is… 4 or 5 years old? I went through my sketchbook the other day and I figured I’d post some of the drawings I was more proud of. It’s not often I finish a drawing, haha.

Life is an atrocity
We are angry we are shocked
Life is graceful
Spiderweb lines
We weave
Symbolic sounds
We weather
Whatever together
We sing so silly
We write so weird
Whenever we pleasure
To make a beautiful thing
Out of something sinister
We cling to it with desperate hands
But with no meat on our bones
It slips through
Our skeleton fingers.
I redrew that thing, this is what it turned into. I mentioned doing this in real ink, instead I drew it digitally, which is the most not-real ink of all. Except for disappearing ink. And that would have just been a waste of time. Question: what is the most not-real ink of all? Water!? *Mind blown*
Not sure how I’ll feel tomorrow but for now, I like it. I think this is a style I’ve been reaching toward but never fully realized until recently.
