The Atlanta Backyard


I was surprised to see how much Atlanta had that we New Yorkers don't. Nature, for instance, is something that I find inspiration for in most cases, when it comes to art. Atlanta had a lot of that, and I'm sure glad I saw it.
This particular drawing is actually my uncle's neighbor's backyard. The heat down in Georgia was something massive, so in order for me to draw outside, I had to be underneath a garage door, unless I wanted to be cooked alive. I wanted to add more colors, but this is the result.

Going Green!

I know its a bit late for Earth Day and all, but I don't know what drove me to pick up a GREEN Sharpie Marker. It's weird, sometimes I get these urges to try and do stuff out the of ordinary, and express them through my artwork, but I went with it this time. You may never know what results might bring with these risky chances that you take. I highly recommend it!!
At first, of course, I didn't like it, but I pulled myself through with it and started mixing in different mediums. First I used a regular pen, one that you write with, then I started using a GREEN Sharpie Marker, and then I finished it off with colored pencils. Somewhat satisfied with the end result, but we'll see what happens later....
