Candle and Matches
by: Jim Pennington
This image incorporates some old and some new. It started off as an experiment in duplicating a candle flame. Of course I had to draw a candle and candleholder plus a burning candle. A burning candle usually will be dripping hot wax after a few minutes so naturally I had to attempt drawing that too. The matches were a holdover from a previous drawing. I liked the results but something was missing. Where was the match that lit the candle? Well I had a go at that too.
This image was a lot of fun. Special thanks go to Henry Hubich for suggestions with the candle flame. Henry is the author of "Photorealism in TurboCAD" which is a must have for anyone using TurboCAD.
