Simplicity With Pencils

This pencil drawing was done as a playful moment. It’s more of a neat doodle than anything else. I’ve tried… really tried to make messy art. For some reason I can’t. I like my lines to look pretty and neat and orderly. I’ve tried making scribbles and grunge but it doesn’t come out that way. I’ve attempted so many times to make a mess on paper but it never comes out looking loose and sloppy. I guess that’s okay. I’ve always been a bit anal about things like that anyway. I like clean lines. I like order, I like pretty… and so when I doodle, I do so neatly I guess. I admire other peoples messy art and maybe one day I’ll get the hang of imperfect lines. For now however I’ll rejoice in my pretty pretties I create and share them with you. This doodle was done with pencil, black Micron pen, and pink chalk. I like the simplicity of it. Sometimes less is truly more. What’s on your easel today?

Something about this little girl is haunting. The pencil almost creates just a memory of her. Love it.
