Artist's Comments

Here's the framed version (in case anyone wonders) [Link]

This is the project I've been making for the past week and a half, and I must say It has been quite enjoyable. Oh and download for the fullest amount of detail. I had to shrink it down so it all would be visible at once, but it hampered the detail a bit so feel free to download.

For many parts this was a first. Never before had I used a blending stump, nor a Kleenex for my shading techniques, so I was rather confused at first. Still I grew into it.:) Also I have never used charcoal as my main drawing tool. Lastly I'm going to sell this in my school's labor auction(its an FFA thing). It will be put into a custom made frame of matching barn wood, and I'll get to see it Monday(I'll post it up in frame then). I'm very exited about it, although I feel like I'm selling a child.
:(

And if anyone's interested here's my reference photo [link]

Anyway I'll be posting the results of the auction on the 24th this month of February.:)

Very impressive - looks like an old, faded photograph. You should be VERY proud

So beautiful!! I thought it was a photograph until I looked closely. My mom thought it was a photo too. :)

Thank you so much:love:. As you may or may not know(Most people don't read the artist comment) this is the project I am going to auction off soon. I'll post it again when it's in its hand made frame. And again thank you:hug:

Lol I do know that! ;P
Good luck, though I find it really hard as you also have metioned in your comment to sell a drawing of mine, I consider my drawings as my babies too :)
