Durer Praying Hands in Stippling


Durer Praying Hands
8x11
Stippling w/.25mm ink
18 hours
2008

This was my very first serious pen and ink piece, and I chose the most difficult style of pen and ink work to do this. Stippling is when you create an image from a cluster of dots, and in this case I used those dots to create a gradient which definitely adds depth. I was extremely proud of this, and it definitely is the reason I plan to pursue art with my focus being pen and ink. =)
