(bottom drawing is sold)

I used to make these sitting in the front seat of my car, and will likely resume that again when the weather gets colder. In the summer, I'll often take my little portable chair and do these right on location. 2b, 4b, 7b pencils are used...a razor is kept for sharpening, and a white eraser is used less for removal and more as a technique. Each drawing usually takes about an hour of continual work...the pencil is always moving....

Pencil Drawings

These 4 pencil drawings were completed in one long sitting. Each took about 40 minutes. I started off with a 7B and 5B drawing pencil, but found after the first one, that the 5B was enough....many sharpenings with a sharp razor. About 7.5 x 11 inches, on heavy archival printing paper.
