Description

Another Advanced Art project inspired by my Philosophy class looking at Taoist art, most of which consisting of landscapes and mountains. Used India Ink for it, and mechanical pencil for the linework underneath. The story is yours to take on it. :) La la la la

Absolutely love it! :icondragonwant:  For school ive got to choose a artwork made with Indian ink and a clear line to copy it. Maybe ill choose this one, if you dont mind? :icondragontailfast: 
The background is really well done. Makes it look like its really high in the mountains, surroundede by clouds and such. The way the rocks turned out is also really well done, the shading you did makes them look realistisc instead of as flat as the paper is. A tip though might be the shading of the trees. You made them look like silhouettes, as if the light comes from behind (,which for the tallest tree may be true), but on the rocks the light seems to come from the watchers point of vieuw. Though thats a minor detail. Just keep your lightsource in mind.

I also have a question, if you'd like to answer: What artist that works with Indian ink would you recommend I take a look at?

Keep up the good work! :icondragonnod1:
