Recently, I did some sketches for a friend of mine..

He's putting together a book of poems and selling them.. here's a collage of the art... the originals are in plain black ink, using a ball point pen.



All art done by me, but credit goes to some google images I used as reference for drawing the rose for example (cuz I dont draw flowers often lol) I also used quite a few images as reference for the soldier (some from the movie Gladiator)

PEACE

Wow, those are some really excellent drawings. The flower one is especially neat, with the way the roots go into the tiny little planet. It reminds me of The Little Prince; if you've read that, you'll know what I mean, probably.

 I don't really do as much by-hand drawing as I should. I'd probably do more if there was a scanner I could use.

I read that book as a kid. I also thought that the flower was the coolest out of the pictures you got there, with the boat clocking in as a close runner up. Designwise, I think it looks slightly empty, and I've never been a fan of fading edges. I really like the drawings, though.

I also like the drawings, looking at again i see what Cactus means about being empty. I think that could be solved by adding some type of border behind the drawings, kind of like a picture frame.

EDIT: I had nothing to do so i decided to add a border to it so you could see what i mean, view it here.
