these are two sketches i did, from two black and white photos. the first is one of a friend, the lead singer in the band ikarii, and the second is ian curtis from the joy division. i chose the two photographs purposefully, as they were both high contrast images, and so lent themselves easily to the type of sketches i wanted to create. i used only black fineliners and markers, creating the darker areas with a crosshatch-type pattern. i think the use of a black background works extremely well, especially helping the image to fade into its surroundings.
