I draw them in my head when i'm alone

Another entry for threadless loves drawings, here's the whole process, enjoy!

$I draw them in my head when i\'m alone - Threadless, Best T-shirts Ever$

I made a sketch on vellum paper, i like the thickness and softness of its surface

i use a uni point 1 water and fade proof, pigment ink for my pointillism works, i always start on the eyes when i work on faces

Pointillism Process from Kristy Anne Ligones on Vimeo.

I have a video on how i do pointillism, but it's not a clear video, since i'm just using a cheap digi-cam, hehehe

FIN

i scanned the finished pointillism artwork and open it on photoshop

i adjusted the curves a bit to make the black points solid

i separated the points from the white background, so that i could edit the colors easily, i used the linework maker to get it right, you can get the photoshop plug-in here www.threadless.com/profile/63134/stickymike/blog/305238/L...

I did some checkings to make sure that my pointillism textures are still there

i can now change the colors of my pointillism artwork by using color or gradient overlay

i added another color option, in case the voters hated the gradient design i made

I hope you like it! =D

That's very nice! I like the gradient version, though they both look great.

Awesome pointilism. I can't help but feel that a lot of the time and detail is lost in your digitalisation? It's a great piece - but my only though on it is that the features on the face of the character are so dark and deep-set that it make the face look old and a bit unusual? Still - a great piece of drawing and in keeping with the theme, so good luck with the competition :)
