TS - A Tie

A Tie - B3 Pencil, Colour Pencil

I've always admired sketches that show the essence of an object with very few lines, drawn with varying pressure and thickness. Seemingly just quickly put on the paper. The thing that you never really see as the observer is the time and practice that needs to go into this, obviously it's hard to recreate when you try it yourself but ultimately I believe that much of it just comes down to having created different shapes, over and over and over again.

This image, unfortunately is a bit bad in it's quality as it is already dark here again; I really should consider spending a little money in a scanner. The colours in the original are much more vivid.

PS.: If you look closely you can see yesterdays picture shine through the page, it was created on the sheet before.
