It's Black and White
4
After landscapes, I've moved on to some more graphical work. I haven't worked in ink and line work of a while. the white highlights are acrylic. The image is more or less a study of a portion of one of Gustav Dore's famous "Inferno" series. I've always been fascinated by this body of work. There's a very good chance I may interpret some of these in paint.

I love Gustave Dore's work, his style and works are so distinct and atmospheric :) I think you captured the feel very nicely, there is something gothic in this, for sure <3 Love how you used the acrylic white highlights, very good contour and drama <3
some of it ink wash? - a sumi brush is really good for that - treat it like a watercolor, slightly dampen the paper first.
