HELLO NEWSPAPER VOL.1
HELLO Newspaper Vol.1
A Series of Work On Paper Portraits.
Features a selection of 23 Full Page portraits from an ongoing series of work.
I started drawing and mailing portraits to friends in the Spring of 2020 as Covid started shutting things down.
It was my way of saying HELLO to friends in a lo-fi and considered way, with hopes of brightening their day.
I rarely draw people, and I hadn’t drawn in this style or method before, so it has been nice for me to figure things out as I go.
The original portraits are created using Caran D’Ache Wax Pastel and Listo Marking Pen on Manila Scrapbook paper – with cut-out layers taped on top of wherever I messed up the drawing details.
