Bricks and Vines Stipple Drawing - Stipple drawing is an artistic technique where the artist places an intricate series of small dots together to achieve continuous tone in a drawing.
Old Window at Santorini On a recent trip to Greece, I visited several of the islands. Santorini was the most picturesque of all. Lots of old buildings, doors and windows, one of which I captured above. This pen and ink stipple drawing also has a light wash of blue on the windows.
Tulip Poplar Leaf While walking the trails at the NC Arboretum this fall, I picked up several tulip poplar leaves along with sassafras, rhododendron, oak and maple, all of which had brilliant colors as we work our way to a glorious fall. This leaf was drawn using the stipple technique with pen and ink and then filled in with colored pencils.
