Zorn is one of my favorite artists. Not many people can appreciate the wealth of information he has left for us to dwell upon. What a draftsman he was and it is this ability that allowed him the pleasure to capture life on canvis with such ease, accuracy and speed. If I had the opportunity, I would gladly visit the museum dedicated to him and spend at least a year in order to study his work. What a gift that would be.

I like Your choice of images. Are these black and whites you have? Some of them are new to me and I don think I have noticed them on ARC?
We can plainly see that his eye was in tune with nature and with brush in hand he was truly a master artist.

these are scanned from an old book I have about the artist, some of them are studies. They are all cropped and desaturated by me, I`m afraid it`s just some bad habit I have , cropping old masters.
