Bernard, the Dotty Man Inktense black brush pen - Jez |
Having created a lady with circles recently, I thought it might be interesting to try a face with nothing but dots, making an attempt to show light and shade through the placement of the dots.
That's why he's Bernard the Dotty Man. He looks to me as though he might be a golfer.
What more can I say? I held my breath every time I picked up my sketchbook and added some more dots in case I dotted in the wrong places, but for a first attempt it's quite reasonable and I am very pleased with it. One of my favourites from the whole series. In fact, I look at it and can't believe I did it!

Bernard is a great dotty man Jez. I can just imagine him with his golf shoes and plus fours!
