Harley and Rider drawing
 
1 Attachment(s)
This 11x17 portrait of a Harley and a rider was commissioned by the rider's wife and was drawn from a reference pic (as are all my portraits). The reference pic in this case was snapped in the rider's driveway. I removed the lawn and the neighbors' houses, stretched the 'canvas,' and created a sunrise for the guy to appear to be heading into. I drew it with one Blackwing pencil which is 4B on Canson pure-white paper.

A closeup would be helpful. :)

Has a nice spirit to it!

Thanks Cynthia. I try to put my personality into the reference pics I draw from, pics which are otherwise average photos. My sons might call my personality embarrassing, but I agree with you. Spirit!
