wagonized: Deliberate neglect

Deliberate neglect

This Moleskine is gradually turning into a pencil drawing Moleskine. I didn't intend it to be that way at first, but this is where it seems to be heading. Tonight I was drawing a bit aimlessly from a picture by Leroy Skalstad.

HB pencil.

More great shots by Leroy Skalstad on his Flickr page.

This drawing is staggering, I am sincerley impressed with the sensitivity in your lines and the way you capture likeness. Seeing you do things like this makes me want to stop everything and just make art! I have struggled for years to make my artwork and never had so much encouragement by the fine examples I come across in the two months I've been following these blogs. Keep drawing and inspiring!

Beautifully done! I love the softness of it paired with the colored paper. It really tones down his stern look

Now, THIS is the France I remember from the first time I saw your work! Your art still makes my heart full no matter how many times I view it! I am grateful for you!

I have been back many times this week, just to recharge my creative batteries. I'll come back tomorrow, and the day after ...
