Started with my tiny drawing yesterday, I have been possessed by my pencils. This one is a copy from the book "The Art of Pencil Drawing" by Ernest W. Watson. I really like the way he illustrated the cityscapes. I am learning his value design, and the abstract patterns he used in rendering. In the near future I want to paint from photos, but I am not good to organize information from the photo. So learning by copying others work is an effective way for me.
It's a wonderful study of Watson's work. I like pencil sketches and Watson is one of my favorites as well. Just as you are one of my favorite painters.
ReplyDeleteExcellent drawing!!
ReplyDeleteI love this.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right about copying to learn. I always say I'm going to do it then I don't.
