Many Moons Ago

I usually do buildings of some sort, or trees, but this wanted to be mountains. And multiple moons.

It's 6"x9" and began with a gray wash on parts of the paper. I really wanted something funky for some of the mountains but couldn't think of anything. Then along came Sam Taylor's Narwal tangle. Perfect! I tangled in black, and shaded in pencil. There is a bit of gray ink throughout for mid-tones and shadow.

For those interested, here's Sam Taylor demonstrating how to draw Narwal:

  1. Absolutely gorgeous! I have a feeling this may be the 1st in a series of mountains!

  2. Oh that was fun to watch! (especially the speed up parts) You have a very nice voice for it, too. Lots of bloggers sound so nervous when they make a video... I didn't catch any of that in yours.
    Please do it again some time.
    Hugs

    1. Terri, it's not my video. It was made by Sam Taylor, the designer of Narwal. One of these years I'll attempt a video, perhaps!
