Enormously complex head wear...good work, David.

That’s a difficult subject, well executed.

A4 pencil sketch of the face of Perseus (holding head of Medusa) which is a wonder of art and engineering being cast in one lump. There's a lot to draw here, maybe I hurried a little and could have studied the shadows and tones better but after getting the main elements I probably didn't look as hard as I should have. I still think the sketch looks OK but could be even better with darker darks and more hours applied.

About the Artist

Inspired by an artist friend I came back to paint a bit at the end of 2017. At the moment I am enjoying it and maybe because I have the patience to look more than I once did I am finding it easier and more enjoyable to actually produce a likeness.
