I draw. A lot. You can see my art on Instagram: @matthewjschultz or on my website: https://mjs.art
As part of my artistic process, I create custom drawing stencils. I design them for my use, but I've received a lot of interest, so I'm making some of them downloadable.
This is 'Drawing Stencil Kit #2". DSK2 includes three shapes: pentagons, hexagons, and octagons. Each template has eight sizes starting at the top with 1/8”, increasing by 1/8” each step down, stopping at 1”. The shape sizes are determined by starting in the center and measuring out 1/2 the width to one side.
I designed my stencils with an asymmetrical top and bottom:
My innovative tiered design prevents the pen tip from contacting the edge of the stencil and the paper simultaneously which can result in a capillary action that causes ink blotches.
Another innovation comes from 3D printing the stencils with the top side facing down. This results in the bottom side having a bit of texture that provides a tiny bit of grip (when compared to the smooth top side) on the paper.
I designed this for me and my use, but I'm interested in your experience, too. I'm constantly revising my designs as I work with my tools, so stay tuned for any updates/revisions, and I'll be sure to add some kind of version log in this description.
