Yet more dots.

Even I'm getting sick of this stippling stuff.

Here's another piece I worked on during the Idaho trip. I bought colored pens and attempted stippling in color. Might have worked better if the set included a yellow. How are you supposed to get rich skin tones and mute purples without YELLOW?

I like my black and white stuff better, but I think I'll play with the concept more.





And a detail of the part I like best:



I used every color in the shadows. Need to work on mixing more.
