Hi Steemians!

Besides digital doodlings, I do quite enjoy traditional drawing. I also like to try new techniques from time to time (apart from any kind of paint, but you can read about it a bit here.)

Two days ago I drew a small ~~minimalistic-urban-hipster-gluten free~~ sketch thingy where I tried strippling. I was not quite satisfied with the result, so I decided to try again because practice practice practice!

That was when I remembered reading about the Art Explosion contest hosted by @juliakponsford. So I thought it would be a great opportunity to put two and two together and enter the contest. After some time of thinking and then stabbing a processed tree, I drew this:

I used pencil and 0.1 fineliner on paper. Progress pictures:

And there it is:

I'm much happier with the second shot at this and I think I'll continue turning boring breaks at the office into some tiny art (this is a profile called tinymischiefs after all).

Thank you all for reading this, I'll be back soon with another post, take care!

XX,
