Artist's Comments

Well I did this drawing back in spring 2K2, it's just been in the school's display case since then cause I won Best Traditional Art for Portraits at ETSU's EDGE Show. It's in color pencil and took about 20 hours, though even I don't know exactly how I pulled it off. Funny thing is I did this almost the entire time listening to Willie's new album. It was a nice step away from Photoshop. I'll try to get a better pic uploaded later since all I can use at the moment is my digital cam.

Right on,at least there are some people who enjoy the classic country music.Not like these new artists they're playing now,bah!

Anyways,this looks awsome.And i mean everything.. the shading,the lighting,textures,everything. Excellent work.

I love the fact that he kinda needs a shave.

You did a wonderful job of not letting pencil strokes show on his face. Or perhaps they are there but the camera just didn't pick em up. I always hated it how a scanner would randomly pick stuff to make better or worsen. o@

Anyway, this is a wonderful piece. It's got such a real feel to it, anyone not familiar with the medium is going to think it's paint. I love the looks on their faces when they learn it's colored pencil XD

Thank God I don't have to save the world. Everyone would die, I'm so easily sidetracked.

It looks almost photo-realistic, and I applaud you for that! It looks as if you started taking less time on it after you finished the face, though... But you still wipe the floor with me when it comes to color realism ._.

yeah, when i get it back, i might want to add another pencil (or 2 after i've already used 4) to the black of the piece. But actually, i did the black first, face most of the way, then the hair (which is kinda what i wish i could worked on more). but, my friends basically told me "stop touching it and leave it alone!!!!" LOL which was probably for the best. ^_^

God damn that's bad ass. I mean..christ. I knew who it was before I saw the caption, adn the detail I mean christ above, that's incredible. Realism is such a commodity these days. I'm surprised you got so few comments on this, it's remarkable! I love the details, and the cleanness of this picture. Just wow.
