Whoa, Bill! Neat technique!! How big is this thing is real life? I really like the woodgrainy-ness of it! It'd be awesome to see one that's even more detaily and wood-like. Awesome. Also, eventually you should do a show of all your musician portraits...you seem to be racking up quite a number of them!
thanks Kali! this drawing is done on a 11'' by 17'' bristol board pad. The bristol doesn't absorb any of the charcoal so you can just sort of push it around as much as you want with out it becoming a grey mess. Good idea about the musician portrait show!
i don't know if thats actually a quote from anything, but it should be. These new pieces are great! duh. Its good to see you're posting stuff up for the world to see.
