Grasshopper
14″ x 17″ Pencil On Paper
My I-Fri entry for this week’s theme “Insect”.
I enjoyed drawing this since I’ve been wanting to do this subject for a long time but have not had the motivation to do so. I was not able to draw much this week because I’ve been coding day and night trying to finish something for work… Being able to draw again is a nice change of pace (oops).

I found this this so funny… Software Engineers’ Fight Club?! Thanks Mark for the link.

I really love this sketch. Nice job!
love
The detail on this is so good that I can almost hear it crunching on the leaf! I’m glad you found time to come out and play:>
I like grasshoppers, and this is a great drawing. Your shading strokes have a very interesting texture, almost sculptural-looking, like hammered metal. Very cool.
Nice one, very intricate sketch. Sometimes taking time to do a sketch is therapeutic.
That’s one impressive grasshopper.
excellent line work…it does have a lot of texture and depth…very cool!
I am not a big bug fan but this is a wonderful drawing; nice clean consistent technique; looking forward to seeing more!
Amazing!!! I love the technique you used for this!
