Viola Niccolai: Sometimes I Just Want Woodcuts and Pencils

Illustration today.

With the graphics tablets and the Photoshopping. With the 3D modeling and the shading. Or the flatness and the minimalism…the same styles/things/techniques over and over and over.

Sometimes I just want a nice pencil drawing or a woodblock print you know? Thank you Viola Niccolai for giving me just what I needed today.
