Column 1 by Lionel Simister

I like the drawing and I think the Sepia works well , certainly not a scruffy drawing Lionel, I used to design garden planters and fountains for a friend and always shaded my drawings I only wish they had sepia pens then, looks great .

I agree with above, beautiful crisp, clean lines. Great drawing with lovely tones.

You've conveyed the shape particularly well, and I like the way you've conveyed a large structure without actually drawing even half of it.

A very good tonal piece and excellent drawing.

Thank you all very much for your kind comments.....and a Happy Christmas to you and yours.

Only just seen this, Lionel. There is something deliciously enticing about a perfect image in a sea of paper. I always love it. It is even more intriguing in that we see only half of the column and are left to fill in the rest ourselves. This makes you engage with the painting and that, to me, in the name of the game. Really nice work.

I like this it is very good
