An ear of maize

maize090713

Maize (corn) from a farm in Mie prefecture, central Japan. Very very sweet. I got surprised to eat this maize at a farm-managed restaurant and then I have bought an ear today. Sketched this on the day I bought—the 13th of July, 2009.

Hi Yusuke. Love your OP work. Would you mind explaining your technique for the cornsilk? Did you draw the silk after the corn and leaves were drawn or did you leave bits of white paper and color around the white? The effect is just lovely.

Thanks, B.
Technique for the cornsilk is not that special. I drew the silk over the corn and leaves. Bright parts were the opaque white pigment and I partly scratched them off to make it "thin" as a cornsilk fiber.
