Description
Hi everyone, I hope you all had a good Christmas, I found a bunch of old CDs of mine and going through some old 3d graphics and things, I came across this 2D drawing that I did of Elvis in 1980, I used plain old brown piece of paper and a white piece of chalk to do this with, It was the first and only time that I tried chalk on paper, and the most difficult thing for me was to go from a dark background and use a white chalk...it was completely reverse from any hand drawings that I have done. Oh well I've tried a lot of things [^____^], I hope you enjoy this as much as I did while drawing it, This scan of the original is very bad, the original is much more crisp and clear [^___^]
Cheers, Roger

Amazing! I admire people who can sketch like that. Chalk is a difficult medium to work with. You certainly have a handle on it.

RUN, do not walk--and get some brown paper and white chalk! You should be expanding on this gift of hand that you possess. This is an incredible drawing for someone who never used these materials as such before. I am very impressed with your natural skill! You have incredible line perception...please let me know if you go back to this medium...I'd love to see more. :-)
