I've inked this same picture ...this is a graphite which i thought i could get some depth into.. The ink was used for promotions of an arts and crafts gallery...
Graphite...14x16...Bristol
: )
This is my Sher I admirer,and been so interessed of.Perfect in details and is very interssting with details and bigger parts,a combination of 2 styles.Love it.
Rich and powerful portrait of a being with which we share this planet and yet are more aliens to us than any being in a UFO. I hope enough animals survive the childhood of our culture so that we may communicate. Powerful portrait.
Wow Sher! you've made your graphite sing! amazing depth and detail!! He looks ready for flight! I love his talons, and his expression! just awesome!! :o)
Isn't he cute? Love the detail and the textures used here. The contrast between light and dark and the general form of the overall piece really bring this all together. Outstanding job.
