In keeping with my recent
enthusiasm with India Ink portraits, I drew (or painted?) a portrait of Harry
Belafonte and I’m super excited about it. I’ve become very zealous in my
pursuit to understand Ink as a medium and it seems that every subject I come
across lately, I can see a really cool ink drawing being done of it and Harry
Belafonte was no exception.

This drawing started off as a
sketch; this time I decided to use my light table to draw the shape of Mr.
Belafonte’s head and hand, and freehanded the details. I decided to experiment
with exaggeration in this piece and elongated his neck, which in my opinion,
enhances the mood of the drawing. After the sketch was completed I began to
slowly build up washes on ink and the end result is fantastic. I’m very proud
of this piece and look forward to doing many more. Have you accomplished
something that you’re proud of? If so, let me know in the comments below. Check
out the video below to watch me work.
