Drawing - Graphite Drawing On Bristol Vellum Paper
Description
This is a commissioned drawing in graphite using 4H, 2H, HB, 2B, 4B, 6B pencils and mechanical pencils. I really like using the mechanical pencils because you can rub as you rotate the pencil and obtain a very sharp point. The drawing is rather small - 8x10" - and I found it necessary to use a magnifying glass to see what I was doing. Guess my eyes are just not as young as they used to be. LOL

Hi Roena. Long time no see. I've been away from Fineart a few years. Trying to get back into the swing of things. I've never watched a Polo match and you make it look like fun.

Thank you for your lovely and encouraging comments Sorin, Carol, and Carolina. Carolina, I believe this image was taken at a actually polo match. He plays at the Houston Polo Club I believe.

This is an excellent expression of playing stick and ball. Polo is a passion of mine. Nice work.

WOW.....outstanding drawing RO...and what a specialised field too. I can see that you will be asked to be commissioned again on this subject..Not an easy one. I know a couple of people in the "polo crowd" and will pass it onto them! Bx

Are you kidding me Paul? This is extraordinary Ro. You have a real talent for horses it seems and I am going to be really looking forward to seeing your polo series. Do you have a facebook page? I'd be happy to share your stuff with all my freinds, maybe another good way to get your art out there? xxxx Michelle

this turned out nice but i think it needs more contrast to take it to the next level of realism how ever its quite nice the way it is and i would think it will sell well
