sommer ohne worte - Text and Image connection
🕑 Added 2022-12-09 14:38:13 +0000 UTCToday I wanted to show something a little different out of my portfolio.
These pencil drawings with digital coloration are part of a series where I illustrated various poems of an author friend of mine. The poems focus on everyday observations and thoughts.
This series really showcases two aspects within my art I find myself drawn to quite often: details/materials and lighting to set a mood.
In this case it's also playing with negative space, the white areas left untouched and is testing various levels of composition. This mixed media technique where I add digital coloration to traditional drawings, which are either done with a pencil or with ink, is really an area of medium I hope to expand even more into in the future and has been my technique of choice for a couple more elaborate projects beside my digital art in the last couple years already.
I never really found the right visual connection between text and drawing for this one tho, which is why I consider this project still somewhat undone and hope to come back to it one day, when I'm more suited to tackle this issue.

Such wonderful drawings! They invoke some nostalgia somehow, and even though I unfortunately can't understand the texts, the drawings set the mood really nicely~
