My First Post

I am new to the whole blog thing so there aren't many sites that I have visited, but there was one that stood out to me. The site is Wagonized and it features work by the amazingly talented France Belleville. One thing about her artwork that stood out to me was the way she shows shadows in her drawings. Instead of shading using a technique like when you color, she uses crossed lines to create shadows. Shading is a technique that I tend to stay away from, but France's drawings inspire me to not be afraid of shading and also give me a new way of doing it.
