Earlier this year I got up the courage to run my first Kickstarter campaign and successfully funded it, under the Make 100 project. My plan is to run a Make 100 campaign each year. I call my project “Drawn From Nature”, featuring artwork drawn by me from images of nature I photographed myself. Each year will have a different subject that will be the sub-title to the main nature theme. This January 2024, my subject was koi, “Drawn From Nature: Koi.” Read about my first campaign HERE.
For my second campaign, coming in January of 2025, the subject will be the magnificent lotus flower, “Drawn From Nature: Lotus.” Similarly as last year, I have created 20 drawings of lotus based on photographs I took of these beautiful flowers. These images are drawn on a 9 x 12 art paper. The original inked drawings will be cut into 4.5 x 6 pieces. Each original will only have 20 prints made.
Here are the original finished pencil drawings that will be inked for the Make 100 campaign. As my Patreon patrons, you are seeing this artwork first before anyone else. Stay tuned as I continue work on this project for the remainder of the year. I will release updates here on Patreon for my patrons first before publishing on all my various other media platforms at a later date.
