Pen Drawing On Paper- Best Choice Of Background?
Now I am almost close to finishing this piece. After much deliberation with my friend on what color to use as a background - blue or black - I ended choosing deep blue as the most preferred color instead of black.
Initially, I had earlier thought of using black but my roommate suggested that black would make the work look dull so he suggested blue.
Giving a try after much deliberation and imaginative thoughts in how it would look like, it appears that this would be the best option.
Stay tuned for the final piece.

You are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
It is good to be open to the perspectives of others, you can learn and understand several things, even have ideas.
That is one thing I don't joke with especially if the suggestion is coming from art lovers but are not artists. They sometimes see what artists don't see.

It is very true, in my case I like to know the opinion of the observers of my publications although they are almost always praise but I like a criticism much more than a compliment.
Praise makes the ego grow while criticism allows you to improve on what you do.
Same with me. I always love and welcome constructive criticisms cause I would learn a lot from there. They help build me and make me better.

Wuaooo realmente impresionante la forma en que recreaste a esta personas pareciera como si hubieras plasmado su fotografía solamente, que buena técnica y destreza con los lápices, además que los detalles se ven súper ajustados a la situación. Siempre he dicho que esto es un arte digno de admirar, igual que los demás pero tratar de hacer algo tan similar a lo real es increíble. Te mando una inmensa felicitación y que sigan lloviendo las obras de arte como esta.
Saludos.
Thanks for the greeting and appreciation of my piece. My goal in every portrait is to make the work look as real as possible. Am still in the process of getting better though.

It's looking amazing! Such a smooth finish for pen work. I really like the blue, because its like a black and white photo, but blue scaled rather than the greys we're used to.

Me too. Am a fan of blue and l'm happy I chose it.

extraordinary work is going very well, you already have the main layers very well distributed, the components are well in proportions, focus now on giving contrasts by nodding the shadows a little more and the degradations, excellent work my friend
Thank you for the suggestion. I will see to it.
