Description
EDIT: 3/26/06 Drawing is now in the private collection of =darthmarlan .---------------
I couldn't sleep. (What's new.) So I asked one of my favorite DA photographers, =darthmarlan , if I could sketch his self portrait "Observed" (it's one of my favorites of his many wonderful photographs). Check it out: [link]
Happily, he said I could, and here is the resulting sketch.
Thank you, Simon; I love this pic. It was so very fun to draw.
2 hours, graphite.

Well, thank you! I'm just a pencil artist; I must admit, it was the photo that made the piece, I didn't have much to do with it! ^__^ Your photos are also phenomenal. Wow.

I love it. Cheers to the photographer for the framing. It's even more exciting as a sketch - so rare you get such creative framing in a sketch....
