Raven

Susan Bergstrom

Raven

An original Prismacolor Pencil, Pen and Ink drawing.
Raven is another in my Native American Woman Series.

Drawn on card stock, bonded, acid free,low tooth artist drawing paper. I use a bonded paper with low or no tooth for the smooth blending abilities and so the pastels are not chewed up during the drawing process.
My Fine Art and Photography Studio is located in Mesquite, Nevada.

Thank your for viewing my art.

    I can see why you use low tooth or no tooth, as it gives the work a velvety smooth quality. Great work

  • Susan Bergstrom replied 20 days ago

    I found this paper quite by accident…it was actually the only thing I had at the time and it has turned out to be the only paper I use…and I do strive for that velvety look! Thanks for viewing Helen!
