Artist's Comments

A fairly quick piece, but I'm rather pleased with it. It was my birthday present to me - I've been rather stressed, and I've got a few commissions to do, but I allowed myself just a little time to draw something that didn't *have* to turn out perfectly.
Very little blending on this one- just a little on his collar and coat. It was fun to do.

I hope you like it!

Size: A little under A3
Time Taken: about 10 hours
Materials: 0.5 mechanical pencil with B lead, solid graphite pencils (8B and Aquarelle), blending stumps, plastic and kneadable erasers.

Enjoy! =D

I think our references must have been both from the same shoot- they both look very Casablanca-like =)
I'm glad you like it! Thanks!

Yes, Alene, thought the same - but this photo (photos) are just so famous ;)
And you are welcome!

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
