You would think so because of all the individual strokes involved but they actually go pretty fast. It really took boldness more than anything else, particularly for the foreground which was an impenetrable mess of standing and fallen and broken reeds. I just had to gather up my courage and say: OK, here I'm going to make some that are very tall, and here some lines that look like fallen reeds, and here some lines that maybe will look like broken reeds. I think it all worked out so that it does create that illusion. But I sure didn't know if it would work when I started out.<br /><br />Working in pen I think forced me to be bold about it and not try to fudge things(because I couldn't!!). <br /><br />Glad you like it.Ken Januskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16984782169460110520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3618025896103645633.post-21432016500136165502009-10-18T08:43:10.632-04:002009-10-18T08:43:10.632-04:00Wow!!
