Pairing: none
Rating: G
Warnings: none
Verse: Sherlock BBC
Reccer's comments: I recently ran across this artist's awe-inspiring catalogue of BBC Sherlock portraits, varying in style from pencil sketches to digital paintings. The striking realism of the drawings and the way the artist has experimented with different ways of expressing character and mood are amazing. Their pencil sketches offer beautiful close-ups full of nuanced expression, such as these series 1 era portraits of John Watson and Sherlock.
The digital paintings experiment more with light and mood. Check out the drizzly greys of Bored; see how Sherlock's surroundings and his own body blur around the edges while the lurid, cartoonish smiley face on the wall is matched by a squiggly, comic-strip black cloud over Sherlock's own head. And look how the artist plays with stark shadows against an abstract background in this beautiful silhouette of Sherlock.
The artist's tumblr posts are not tagged by fandom so there is a mixture of art on any given page of their blog, but you can find the rest of their Sherlock art on these two pages: here and here. It's all beautiful!
