Artist's Comments
This illustration was inspired by some of the sketches of the Old Masters, Leonardo da Vinci in particular. I love the look and feel of the old portraits that were done in charcoal or pastels, and I got the inspiration to create a piece that had that same feeling. By working with sepia brown pencils on matching paper, I have achieved the look I wanted. It was a lot of fun and I may do more of these.
