Description I like the close up of his face on the ref photo of this which is why I chose it but didn't realise how tricky it would be to do, I nearly gave up after the 1st hour!

Anyway I hope you like the finished result.

Approx 20hrs, graphite on smooth A3 bristol using a range of derwent and staedtler pencils.

Perseverance is a quality that I lack as an artist so it's inspirational to hear others talk of situations in which it benefited them.Β  Glad you didn't give up, it would have been a loss to others as well.Β Β Β
