Artist's Comments

Drawn from a picture taken at least 3 years ago...I asked if I could draw in then, but he may have forgotten by now. [link]

You can see the lines but I used a grid to get the proportions right. I need to learn to stop doing that...

White charcoal on black paper, 6 1/2 x 10

Tab, it totally rocks :) And I DO remember you asking if you could draw it ;) It really does look pretty awesome. And, there's no shame in using a grid techique, it's a great tool and far from cheating. You know I use it often when I do portraits :)

I'm glad you like it. :-)

I know how useful gridding is, especially since I have a hard time seeing the big picture X-). But I envy people that can draw without using it. I know people who can re create anything just by sight... I'm getting better, though. My squares are at least 3x bigger than they used to be.
