On Ice

On Ice - Fine Line Pen on Card (A5)

To create this stipple drawing, Tom used Micron Graphic fine line pens (0.05m and 0.8m) on 300 gsm card-stock.

In this artwork Tom attempted to capture a bottle of champagne, partially submerged in a bucket of ice. The bottle is adorned with a simple label, and its surface is covered in fine stippling, creating a subtle textured effect. The ice surrounding the bottle is rendered in a minimalist style, with sharp angles and clean lines. The overall composition exudes a sense of elegance and sophistication, capturing the essence of a celebratory moment.

The background is two dimensional, almost to deflect attention away from it, in order to focus the viewers attention to the foreground.
