There's a real sense of weight and labour - good one Malcolm

Love the way you have made his burden so heavy. Beautifully painted Malcolm.

Thanks Heather and Carole your comments are much appreciated and that load is actually the true size of what they carry Carole.

You've captured the laboured walk and the heavy load with just the right amount of detail. Super work.

Really good figure pose, it does give the look of being weighed down with his pack.

Thank you so much for those comments and observations Seok and Fiona much appreciated nice to know I managed to get the right feeling into it.

I'm glad he's going down and not up, Malcolm but maybe this is the return journey? As everyone has said, you've conveyed a sense of hardship very well,

Yes this was actually the return journey Marjorie, but of course to come down he had to have gone way up in the first place, thank you for your comment, much appreciated as are all comments.

Excellent depiction of the burden and use of colour pencil technique.
