Western Literary Figures Day 4: #charcoalart #drawing #literaryfigures

Day 4: Added Dubois and Chaucer. I wanted each part to include something which reflects the time in which the author lived so I decided to add some manuscript-style art near Chaucer.

Western Lit Figures day two… Work in progress with charcoal.

Western Literary Figures Classic Illustration #classicillustration #charcoalart #drawing

Working on this poster 18″ x 23″ for someone’s literature classroom with charcoal. I have quite a bit to add to this. I enjoy classic illustration very much.

Back to Basics #valuesphere #alwayslearning #drawing

I decided to take a break from my usual art and focus on developing myself. I am putting myself through some intensive art training exercises and have some exciting workshops I will be attending this year. I am looking forward to meeting up with some great artists, learning, and growing. I cannot wait to see where all of this takes me!

This is the value sphere I worked on yesterday freehand with an H, 2H and HB pencil with no blending. I will probably do another one today. These are great exercises to go to again and again.

This is the final product after adjusting the form shadow and light source. I also smoothed out the area around the sphere.
