Artist's Comments

Stock image from ~grace-stock

Medium: HB graphite, mechinal pencil.
Paper: White, smooth drawing paper.
Time: About 15 hours.

I have ALWAYS wanted to draw a really close up eye and as soon as I found this amazing piece of stock I knew this was the eye. I cropped the original image to get it to where I wanted it to be.

Again my scanner screwed up big time, I wish I could show you want the really one looks like. I am really so proud of this one. Inspiration came from *signalbox but their work is so mcuh better than mine.

Wow... amazing!
How did you make those white strokes?

Thanks :D The really, really thin white strokes are done by scoring the page with a needle first and then drawing over it, allowing the scored bit to be left white. The other thicker ones were just done by negative drawing - colouring the space around them.
