Art Challenge 2: On the Pilgrim Road

For this weeks sketch Sean chose the topic "the last crusader watching over the pilgrim road that leads to Jerusalem." I wish I had time to do more with this one. Specifically a reverse shot so we could see his face and perhaps a city in the distance, but work this week put the brakes on. Perhaps I'll revisit this before the weeks up, as Sean is busy with moving to DC to take on big government.

Art Challenge: Falconer

My friend, Sean Ferguson and I have decided to embark on a drawing challenge of sorts. The idea is nothing entirely new and I've seen it done all over the internetslolkthx.



Its not a challenge to see who wins the specific weeks topic, but just to keep us a bit sharper. As Sean has just graduated and I'm engulfed in finishing Labor Days.

Each week (hopefully we'll keep it going for a while) one of us will pick a topic and 7 days later we'll post our drawings. Anything goes as far as medium and finishes.

The first topic I chose was a "falconer in the service of Genghis Khan." After reading the Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch (which featured a nasty falconer wizard) i've been wanting to draw one. And then i just added the Genghis Khan part for world specific-ness.
