These drawings were inspired by the game series Legend of Zelda and it's character's Sheikah Eye of Truth that is seen throughout the games. The black colored eye is one from the earlier games, such as The Ocarina of Time and the second, more complicated blue drawing is from the most recent Zelda game, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. When drawing I typically stick to colored pencils, but for these drawings, I wanted the coloring to be as bold as they are in the games and on screen. Therefore, I used pens, specifically sharpies in order to get a solid and bold color for these drawings, which I believe I would not have been able to get from the colored pencils that I use. Also, if I had used colored pencils, I believe a texture from the paper would be left within the design, but by using the pens, the images have a similar smooth look as they do on screen.
