Description

2B pencil on sketchpad (area shown: approx 6x5.5cm) 2nd August 1993 I realise that Theme contributions are ideally new works created especially... but I remembered these sketches I made of a dead fly a whole decade ago. I had just completed my A Level course and was about to begin a year's Foundation Course in general art and design; this was for a mandatory pre-course summer sketchpad. I should point out that the original sketches are tiny and you're actually seeing them a lot bigger here on your screens... check the dimensions above ;-) The fly was relatively easy to sketch, being no longer alive! Also it was easy to position, as it had set as stiff as a board after death... heheh... Thanks as always for your feedback and critique :-)

What a wonderful collection of flies, even if dead, great sketching and you did a good job of enlarging them for upload. Cool for the March Challenge. <<<<

The sketches look great, and so small? You got so much detail into them. Nice work, albeit old work. As Titta said in the forum, it may have been dead but you've given it eternal life - or 50 years or so. ;)
