This is my second piece of Bob’s Burgers fan art, and it’s far more subtle than the first. Two tilted wine glasses appear in negative space, along with shapes to indicate that they’re clinking. The text forming the shapes includes a quote from Linda Belcher:
“Wine helps me drink!”
To complete this piece, I cut down a large sheet of watercolor paper to 12 x 12 inches. I measured out an outside border of a half inch on each edge, then used a projector to get the positioning of the wine glasses just right.
Once the outline was in place, I began by filling in the “wine” section with a purple Sakura Micron Pigma 005 pen. I moved onto the black section afterward, slowly rotating the paper and filling the designated area to completion. This took approximately three weeks, though I took breaks between sessions to work on smaller pieces.
After breathing a deep sigh of relief, I erased the pencil lines and scanned the piece in four separate sections. These were then stitched together to form the final digital version. As of now, this piece remains unframed, but I do hope to show it somewhere in the near future.
Is this piece available?
“Wine Helps Me Drink!” is available as a limited edition print in my online shop.
The original is still available. Please contact me if you’re interested.
