And for people to buy something like a Hummer (or SUV or any other type of gas guzzler) just because it's "cool"... well, meh. It's one of my biggest pet peeves.<br /><br />Anyway... I'm happy to hear you liked the piece! As for the process, it's pretty simple: I've been drawing both on paper (the background in the finished, layered image is on paper) and on vellum. I then layer the images and put an extra sheet of vellum between the background drawing and the vellum drawing in order to give it a little less transparency. (The idea is for people to get as close as they can to see what's really going on in the piece.) I was wondering if I should add yet another layer of vellum, but I think that might make it a little too difficult to see.Jennifer Cuellarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135722301309602373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804352671895479730.post-36539876247187235082009-09-03T11:26:01.784-07:002009-09-03T11:26:01.784-07:00Eek~ I hear you.

There's something about that "army look" I really like, but do not support) it's disgusting to know what those cars do to the environment... and to a bigger extent like you mention, our younger generations' thought process and what not >:/<br /><br />Nice piece! How to you come up with the final? It looks like you took some sort of photo through frosted glass, and yet drew on top of it? /curiousAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
