Gandalf!

So I've been working several things: one of which is a Gandalf portrait and thought I would share it in its "sketch" stage.



I tried a different way of working this one- just using some photo reference, and sketching first with a blue pencil and then with raw umber directly on a gessoed panel. There's something lovely about the freedem this warrants- much like drawing with charcoal. It's got some colors on it now, and perhaps I will share another progress shot soon.

Back to the easel!
