First picture of 2024 by Anne Strulo

Your first of the year and a beauty. It sounds an interesting medium and you've achieved a great result.

Brilliant drawing/painting Anne

Superb picture Anne.🙂

This is a super drawing/painting Anne. I love all the detail within it which you’ve achieved so very well with limited media.

I could settle for just working in charcoal, carbon pencil, ink, and conté crayon - the two media do coalesce in the middle, by which I mean that drawing becomes painting, and in many ways is more satisfying. And it's a damn' sight cheaper! If you would look up Andrew Barrowman on YouTube, you'll find quite a few drawings/paintings in these media - well worth a look, and should be right up your street.

Beautifully done.

A very effective media combination Anne and a lovely result.

It's fabulous, whatever its description!

A superb painting/ drawing with excellent detail.

Great start to the year, keep it up!

I love the result Anne!

Superb Anne. Great tonal range and lots of interesting detail

Great work Anne, wonderful present, brilliantly exploited!
