A couple more bonsai drawings...

[chappy56]

Here are a couple more drawings I've worked on recently.
Hope you like em...
The colored one is from Amy Liang's book "The Living Art of Bonsai"
The other one was just my own.

The one in color is absolutely gorgeous - you working with colored pencils or pastels? Looks to me like the former. You might have just inspired me to get back into sketching myself. Incredible stuff. Kudos.

Beautiful work! What size are these??

 

[chappy56]

Thanks Vic. They're roughly 11 x 14 inches.
But you have me wondering...why do you ask?

Again, nice work, Chappy. While both are lovely, I especially like your technique on the second pic. Very "woodblock print" looking, and interesting comp.

This is one I did many years ago. I believe it is also an Amy Liang's.

Cuz I think they are big enough that you should get them reproduced and sell them... I'd buy a copy of the second fo' sho'....

It is... and housed at the Pacific Rim at that.

Why thank you Vic.
I've been considering doing this for hire.
Send me a photo, and I know you take great photos, of one of yours and I'll draw it for you.

[chappy56]

What would something like that cost

 

[jkd2572]

You need a website where we can order prints!

 

[jkd2572]

Sell them on eBay ect ect.

Wow, thanks all. I'd love to be able to make a few bucks on the side doing something I love.
Jeremy I have no idea what something would be worth. i may just have to figure out what I'd have in time and come up with an hourly rate.
I'm open to suggestions.
