Fricken brilliant. The little strokes on his right cheek are so cool.

When I first saw this I thought it was photo. Absolutely amazing.

Excellent work, really powerful. The detail is brilliant.

Terry Banderas said...

I agree with France--"Fricken brilliant"!!!!!!! This is totally awesome. Can't get much better than this. How long did it take you to complete this?

Stephen Gardner said...

Thanks guys, this was a fun one to do. I laid down some initial tone a black gouache, then worked detail with pencil and bought back the highlight in white gouache, the whole thing maybe took an evening when I had nothing better to do.

Outstanding drawing, Stephen. So many fine details. A great success.

I found your blog through another blog (sorry, can't remember which one) and am completely in awe of your work. I particularly like this one as I'm a big Johnny Cash fan!
