LOTS AND LOTS OF LITTLE DOTS.....


KNOBBY STARFISH

Stippling -  an ever so time consuming yet beautiful rendering technique.  I think this may have been one of the most tedious drawings I have ever done.  But anyone who knows me knows that the more tedious and challenging the task, the more determined I am to see it through.  In other words...yes, I like to make things harder for myself than they need to be.  Yeah, so?  I know what you are all thinking!  I promise I have fun doing it and I love every second of it.  I went through at least 8 movies while drawing this.  Hmmm...let me think...I watched, Beetlejuice, Ghostbusters, Little Miss Sunshine, The Departed, part of 50 First Dates, part of Old School, Napoleon Dynamite, and part of Princess Mononoke.  I suppose I really didn't sit there and watch them, but they were on in the background and they provided a great visual break from all of those dots.
