Description Finished this black beauty today, for my brother Benjamin.
He's a mix of Labrador retriever and border collie.
I used a long time catching all the different fur structures on him. I was able to take a lot of photos up close of him during my little summer break last week, which made it possible to study the fine details of his beautiful face.
Done with Faber Castell charcoal.

My parents dog is also a lab/border collie mix and looks just like this. Beautiful work.

This is absolutely amazing pencil work..I've been checking your art out for years now since 2003 to be exact and you've always been a very big inspiration for me to get better in my art as well... because of your art I've been improving a lot through out the years...

But compare to yours I still have light years to go....Β

Thank you so much, that is awesome to hear.. that's a long time
Art is all about changing, getting better, changing direction... that's what I love so much, your mind is always changing and it's interesting to look back on what you have done years back

Thank you so much and I am very glad to hear that. I kind of did the same but returned here a couple of years back. Deviantart will always have a special heart and it's great to be in a place where it's artists and the love for art being in focus
