Hi Viewers,
I recently was fortunate enough to purchase my first
brush pen art tool and tested it earlier today. With a few
references online used; a character portrait was created.
Since I did not want this to be a being without a name,
Matezza Beluse is what came to mind to call her. She
has no backstory or any function outside of being
portrait art at this time. All I can say is that she looks
more intrigued by the viewer than the apple I placed
in her hand and that she would be an interesting
art exhibition or museum portrait in larger scale
for viewers to interact with to me.
I had no idea of what would become of this sketch,
except really please by how everything came together in the end.
The Pentel Arts Limited Edition Holiday Inking Gift Box is what
I bought from Amazon that had a cheaper price than what it cost now.
Painting is already something I like much, except do not get around
to doing with current art tools. The brush pen is the new tool I wanted
to try for different reasons, so grateful to have finally got to use one.
This portrait is mixed media art, which had me using many
new tools with older ones that did not have much use and kind of
getting dry. If you can afford that gift box, I do recommend it as a
great gift for yourself or others with painting or creative activities
they are into. There have not been any issues with the set yet, only
me worrying about what I will have to do if brush pen tip gets dry.
Portrait Design Description: Female, biting lip expression, hair braids, holding an apple,
flat color choices, less focus on unnecessary or overloading details, minimal or no shadows,
sketch first, decide which tools could be used with brush pen ink, and few happy accidents
with some parts.
Note: Photo editing includes cropping, adding my logo, and additional
complete photo for better qualities not shown in original cellphone photo. My
anthology project is still in the works, been developing "THE YOLK" episode
lately. Check the contest post from time to time as that gets updated when
new art/writing/animation contest are found online to share.
There is one additional older story I completed that will be added
to the anthology project, which only leaves two stories
to add, after "THE YOLK" is complete. I am ready to share
the anthology project with everyone, even though this is my
first original writing project, and process is not being rushed.
Tools Used: Limited Edition Pentel Pocket Brush Pen,
Artist Loft Sketchbook (75IB/110 g/m2, 8.5in x 11in, 21.5cm x 27.9cm, Acid Free, 110pgs)
[Sketchbook paper test due to not having thicker/proper paper for ink to not bleed through. Amazon's Rufus chatbot stated that paper below 90gsm will bleed, mostly any paper with higher GSM (grams per square metre) will not bleed. Fortunately, this sketchbook held out and barely marked the next page. Still, I recommend higher GSM paper, if you can afford.],
Zebra M301 0.5mm Mechanical Pencil, Pentel Pointliner Ink Pens, Prismacolor Premier Markers, & Paper Mate Pink Pearl Eraser [Recommend Hi-Polymer Erasers, which I have, or what works for you.]
