Hello.
Welcome to my first blog entry...ever. Let me introduce myself, I'm Kyle...Kyle Margiotta. I was born and raised in Philadelphia, PA. I have known that I wanted to be an artist since I was in the fourth grade during a summer at the Fairmount Art Camp. As a kid, I was always sent to after-school classes and summer class for everything, from sports to crafts. Drawing and Painting was the only thing that I never stopped doing.
Many years later, after receiving a degree in Illustration at the University of the Arts in PA, I have created works for the commercial field, but primarily for the gallery scene.
The drawing above was done during a 3 hour session at the historical Philadelphia Sketch Club.
Love these white on black drawings. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThis is great!
ReplyDeleteAll right! Good to see a white on black piece. What materials do you use? Paper, color pencils and so forth! Look for my blog soon, New Year's resolution as well! Awesome!
ReplyDeleteThe paper: Canson mi-teintes (black)
ReplyDeleteI like the option of using either the rough side or smooth side. Yes! It has two side.
Pencil: White chalk pencil. It says on the pencil "White Charcoal" But, it's not. Nothing I know of chars into white.
I always have at least 10 white pencils sharpened and ready to go.
A kneaded eraser and one stick of really good white pastel for the really bright whites.
Kyle, so good to see you online now! Hoping next is an updated website?!! ;-)
