30+ Stunning Pencil Drawing Artwork

I was always wondering why we still see black and white artwork and photography in the age of millions of colors and HD technologies. I tried to answer this question based on my love to black and white photography and apply the answer to any black and white art. The black and white artwork takes you beyond the shapes and colors to give you dramatic effect using shadows even more than lines.

Pencil drawing is one of the oldest forms of art that is using different type of pencil that varies in hardness and softness from H9 to B9. The “H” represents the hardness and “B” represents the blackness or the darkness. H9 pens are themost hardest pencils and B9 are themost darkness pencils. HB is in the middle level. However, the full range on pencils is H9, H8, H7, H6, H5, H4, H3, H2, H, HB, B, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, B7, B8.

Drawing with pencil implement many methods to create different effect and styles. For example, you can choose either to draw with shades or lines or both. Here I would like to share with you some really creative pencil drawings by different artists, each of these artists has his or her own style and way to draw with pencils. So, I hope you like it and comment with you best drawings.

Glad to hear it. REAL photography with film is a lot more fun and rewarding than digital :)

Try Photo.net, it's a great website with forums. Try the "Classic Cameras and "Film Processing" forums. It's free to join, and everyone there has been really helpful for me. I just learned traditional photography, and in fact I just learned how to develop black and white film at home in March. I set up a darkroom in my garage and I started developing my own prints with an enlarger. Now, I have two notebooks completely full with my B&W pictures!

You might already know this, but one way to acheive different effects is by using filters on your camera. I just started using a yellow filter, and it really helped to darken the sky in my pictures and get better contrast and more details in the clouds. Even though the film is black and white, you can still get different tones by using filters that selectively block or pass different wavelengths of light. I've seen pictures where people have used a red filter, and it really darkens the sky to almost black, and the clouds really pop out. That might not look natural, but it's an interesting effect to try.

You can also use filters on your enlarger to adjust the contrast, but I haven't tried that yet. There is also "burning" and "dodging," where you selectively adjust the light while you're exposing the photo paper on the enlarger, to lighten or darken certain parts of the picture.

Also, you should look at the website for Freestyle Photo Supplies in Los Angeles, California. (just look up "Freestyle Photo" on Google.) They have a ton of different films you can buy. There are some films that are more sensitive to different wavelengths, which you can use to get different effects.

You could also experiment with toning your prints, like using Sepia tone or Selenium.

I can't think of much else right now…because I'm still pretty new to this myself. But you should definitely check out Photo.net as a good place to start.

You should make a three dimensional image of flower or something and put aromas on it, and on the page before ask people to close their eyes before they turn the page, and then turn that page and try to figure out what it is. Welcome to the world of Helen!

E none of the above.
6, 9, 4 do not have a common factor and cannot be reduced.
C6 H9 O4 is the empirical formula.
