Spectral Phenolysis

“Spectral Phenolysis” — Ballpoint Pen, Watercolor Pen, Acrylic Paint Pen on 271gsm smooth opaque cover (white)

This is a pretty special piece for me to declare finished, because my automatic tendency is to turn it into mud and quickly give up. But no more! Now that I have reliable methods for imparting yellow and white (and various other hues that once scared me), I can really just let loose. This one is actually the first of its kind to have this particular combination of utensils: uniball jetstream 1.0mm baby blue ballpoint, numerous kuretake brush pens (zig real color bristle), white sharpie acrylic paint pen.

Thanks for your patronage, it means a lot to me. Soon I may begin the machinations of selling these babies, which definitely excites me (because let’s face it, money is nice to have sometimes).

Whoever’s out there reading this, just know that you’re a spectral being without conceivable limit.

Cheers,

Aidan

I should really start watermarking these drawings!

But in the meantime, this one is watermark-less.

Enjoy!

2021 has been a down year in terms of my total number of published posts. While it might seem discouraging that we’re well into the tenth month and I’m averaging about two posts per month this year, I can say with confidence that the quality of my compositions has increased from last year’s offerings. Well, I can say anything I want in this echo chamber, but that doesn’t necessarily make it true.

You could say that my 2021 has been more of a Instagram year for me, and my visual output has been pretty prolific lately as a result. You can see for yourself at https://www.instagram.com/wharved_/. Anyway, this is all to say that I’m going to be providing more content on a regular basis to WHARVED, since I want to represent my artistic output as accurately as possible, and I realize that Instagram just doesn’t scratch that itch the same way that WHARVED does.

So here’s a drawing for you! I called it Zipper Skipper, and it is my friend.
