If we’ve learned anything from this, its that I’m no calligrapher. Yeesh!

Phew, that was a real challenge and I’m really glad its finished. I’m very pleased with the way it came out, though I’ll admit I’m a tad disappointed that its taken up three days worth of my drawing vacation. Ah well – on to the next piece!

I’m pretty happy with the way this one turned out, and feel like I’m getting a much better feel for carbon pencils, as well as nailing down some techniques for working with them. I’m going to take a short break from them to do a color piece, and then come back to them next week for a drawing of my son that will be a companion piece for Clara, Profile.

Something from ‘94

Not many drawings survived my college years – I either lost them, ruined them somehow, gesso’d over them to re-use the support, or gave them away. This is one I’ve always liked a lot and held onto these many years. If I recall correctly, the subject was my roommate’s grandfather.

As an aside, the colored pencils I used here were the now discontinued Spectracolors, which I preferred over Primsacolors at the time. I still have the set in the closet. I think there may be some white conté crayon in this piece, too.
