Another drawing

[Dave Hawksford]

From a picture I took at the grand cayon. I do want to do a painting of this so now I'm doing a detailed drawing to get the feel for the painting.

 

[Paul Douglass]

My favorite artist! !

 

[Mike Stafford]

Dang that is good! I can't draw a straight line with a ruler let alone create a picture of something so beautiful.

Really excellent!

Nice work!

You’d have fun with one of the newer iPads with the Apple Pencil. I’ve been enjoying using mine for sketching. The pencil has pressure sensitivity just like you’re drawing with real pencils and markers.

Darren Ink and a quill pen are a bit different from pencils and markers. The nib is a complex tip and all edges are use to draw , get a specific line. As the ink is released the line gets thinner. The guill is becoming a lost art form.

Spent 4 hrs each, the last couple evening on this. I'm realizing I need new prescription for my glasses.

Getting back to the Grand Canyon sketch

 

[Dave Hawksford]

Had a hiccup , but it's not a bad as I thought it would be.
It will be inches at a time now. Kind of new territory for me with the quill. I've done tight before but it's been years.
So this old territory, but much a slower
Evening sit.

Thought you might like to see this 1st of many portraits I did before any art school.This was done in 76 right after I ETS from army. My drawing instructor asked me where I went to school to learn and I told him I picked op a quill pen and just decided to draw one day. I thought all artist could do this. But then again I had no idea what art was back then.

Capturing the ruggedness of the Grand Canyon edge.

Update, the angles are making me cross-eyed.
