The Fist

Hand drawing continued

found

My try

My paper is a 50 lb. weight.

I have been advised to use 

250 lb. weight paper

which is rougher and holds charcoal better

The charcoal I used is a blunt type of material.

I think I need more of a pencil style

Change of Art

I felt stuck lately on doing faces, not happy with the results'

Here is a quick landscape drawing.

Grass, rocks, water flowing, trees.

A change of pace.

Literally,

back to the drawing board.

Draw What I See?

the journey continues

watercolor by

Eric Ravillous

"Caravans"

circa 1930

shown at the Fry Art Gallery

my attempt

A bit of difficulty converting a watercolor 

into black and white

but I think it came out alright.

If something catches my eye

and I think I can draw it

I will try.

I am not afraid to try to draw

I am more afraid not to try.

Raphael?

I found this drawing online. 

It said it was done by Raphael. 

I liked it and thought I would give it a try.

my version

It was a lot of fun to draw.

But now, it is coffee time, of course!
