Snake and Orb 3
Date: High School Sophomore, 2008
Time: An hour or more (?)
Materials: Mechanical 0.9 pencil
Description: A pencil drawing (with good shading) of a long snake, twisted around an orb. Its head is facing down and its forked tongue is sticking out, eyes looking sinister and evil. Serpent, mean, snake eyes, twisted, tangled, ball, statue design, black, white, gray, shading.
Artist’s Comments: I dreamed a strange dream and decided to make a story out of it. One of the things I added to my story (it was not in my dream) was a shelf of figurines and miniature statues. This was one of my ideas, and it was only a sketch to see if I could make it look a certain way.
After attempting to draw the statue design twice, I started to experiment more with shapes and orbs. I did more of these to practice with my shading. It is entertaining to see people try to follow the snake with their finger to see if it works. I assure you, it does; although in this picture, it’s a little hard to figure out which body segment connects to what.
