In keeping with the holiday theme I chose my stone-like cherub for EDM #90 Wings -This little guy sits in my bathroom vanity. The sculpture is fairly heavy, and meant to hang on the wall.
I contemplated spattering him with dark gray but did not want to risk it for my first time spattering ;-)
I also regretted the pen shadowing I did under his chin before the water color wash - looks like he has a beard!
Oh well, I will try him again at a later date and next time on WC paper - my moleskine journal does not like this much water.
Live and learn.
Pencil then pen sketch on moleskine and water color washes added.

WOW! It's gorgeous!!!! And such a different kind of subject for the topic too! GREAT JOB!
I love this drawing. It looks really christmassy, though I understand it sits there year round.

You've done a very nice job of deliniating the volume and weight of the statue. It seems very substantial. The shadows add a lot.
I really like your washy umber shadows, Sandy. Thank you for your very nice comment on my blog, too!
