Fiance got me a set of brown conte for easter. I was so enamoured with the three shades of brown it offered that I drew this. I also wanted to try watercolor technique that a friend showed me... thus, conte on watercolor-toned paper... siannas, ochres, russets and umbers, mmmmm....
I titled it (Love Poem, Part 6) after a part of a poem I wrote about her.
Specifically one stanza:
With hair like a crown
Of female beauty lying
In curls of dark value
Next is the start of a peice on gessoed 300 lb watercolor paper from a photo of my brother in egypt. Will post as it progresses/when I feel like it.
