Wind

This is my picture for Illustration Friday the theme is wind. "Wind" was drawn on a piece of multi-purpose copy paper with my Faber-Castle 3-H pencil, then inked over with my Gel-Roller, then cleaned up and colored in Photoshop.

This illustration took me quite a bit longer than I anticipated. I worked on it for about five hours on Friday and thought I could finish it by cutting and pasting, but I didn't like the way it looked. I decided it would be easier to just draw the whole damn thing. I spent a few hours drawing on Saturday, then two more hours drawing and inking on Sunday night, then it took two more hours today to clean it up and color it. I would have worked straight through Saturday to finish it, but I had a busy weekend. Almost all of this illustration was drawn while listening to Bob Geldof's "sex, age & death".

Anyhow, I hope you enjoy it!

Are you full of wind? Are you going to leave me some love?
