Dear friends,

sometimes I have the feeling, that instead of actually drawing something, I rather just make visible what's already there. A few hours ago I took a very soft pencil (8B) and slightly hatched over the paper of my moleskine. And voilà: This portrait magically appeared.

Here is a larger version, to see the details (provided you're not on your mobile):

I'd like to see what's hidden in your paper. Just try it out:

Gently hatch over a piece of paper and show me the result in the comments!

Looking forward!

Nothing appeared...

... so I drew this strange animal!

:D

Thanks for giving it a try, @yoganarchista - The strange animal is absolutely amazing! Some kind of Yeti in the snow...

By the way, this is what I saw in your hatching:

Nice @shortcut . I similar thing I do is get rubbings on paper from places I visit. If I go to a place that has nice texture, wood, stone, etc. I will get a quick rubbing and stick it in my pocket. It is like having a piece of the location back home.
Thanks for sharing.
upvoted your post and now following.
Cheers,

Ah thanks a lot! That sounds like a fun thing to do :-)
P.S.: Followed right back.

Did your paper come from Easter Island?

Seriously though, that came out extremely well.

Wishing you a fun Sunday!

:-)

@roused

Haha, thank you ;-) Have a great sunday, too!

Ich find das eine sehr spannende Idee. Wenn man so malt, könnte man auch dem Unterbewusstsein Spielraum geben sich auszudrücken.

Liebe Grüsse

Stimmt, genau das ist die Idee dahinter ;-)

als erstes dachte ich es wäre durchgepaust..... toll . mein upvote

Ne, ne - So etwas mache ich nicht... jedenfalls nicht, ohne es zuzugeben.

I really like your style. Good work.

Thanks :-)

Sometimes randomness in life can give us awesome results. You have proved this thing very true. Thanx for sharing it dear.

You're welcome! I'm not sure, if there is something like real randomness (because it's often just something, we don't know the reasons for).

Yup buddy, I also mean the same.

Ich mag echt denn styl deiner Bilder, sehr schön anzuschauen.

Dankeschön!
