Mummy's hat by Russell Edwards

Beautiful Russell. Fantastic light and textures.

Amazing portrait, Russel , great textures.

Exquisite work, Russell. I like the strathmore sketchbooks, I'll have to try the gray. The light effect you have in this is just great.

I knew that you would Russell. This is a gorgeous drawing, it allows you to create these wonderful highlights.

This is great Russell beautifully drawn which fantastic highlights and making the most of the grey surface.

Another stunner Russell beautiful work

A beautiful pencil/pastel portrait, so natural and textures are so light too!

Thank you Marjorie, Cesare, Lewis, Alan, Barry, Dennis and Angela for your positive comments. Thanks again Alan for the recommendation, I've never felt so excited over a sketch book!

Wonderful portrait, Russell... I can see why you're excited about the toned grey paper, as you've used it to great effect!

I was exactly the same waiting for Amazon to turn up with mine. Aren't they just superb to work on. I've got both the gray and tan in both weights, had to wait a while for the heavy tan pad as it came from the states. Looking forward to some more excellent drawings from you. I'm getting through mine at some rate of knots!

Terrific work Russell, the highlights and graduated tones really stand out.

Wow that's spectacular Russell, the textures of the knitted hat and the fur collar are superb. A wonderful portrait.

Thank you Jim and Val
