Jamie Eade

DRAWING

Jamie is a self taught pencil artist, his early inspirations were mainly focussed on wildlife and portraiture. Over the years Jamie became obsessed with reflections, light, shadows and extreme detail which evolved into hyper-realism. It is the imperfections of the subjects that help him create the realism, the perfect imperfection! By elevating the mundane, he brings shadows, shapes and reflections to life, to deliver true definition of the subject. 
Tools of the trade include graphite pencils, colour pencils, white gouache, compounded graphite dust to create texture, as well as various shaping, blending stumps and paint brushes. Even though Jamie uses pencil his techniques are somewhat closer to painting.
