Hello,
This is my collection of art work. I began drawing in August 2006 and continued for about 2 months, this is the fruit of that effort. I copied over 20 master artists from a collection of library books. Eventually, I did a number of pastel drawings from photos that I found compelling or challenging for various reasons. Perhaps this will inspire others to try a little drawing.
There are around 67 initial pieces, lately I've begun to do a few more. The drawings are ordered last to first, a bit illogically since it was a sequential learning curve, but blog updates tend to work that way and alas I started at the beginning. So to make the most sense out of the comments and progression of subjects you should start at the bottom which may take a while to load.
Hope you enjoy a bit of art history and the efforts of a beginner.
