Hands of the Potter
This is kind of a different piece for me. Please excuse the cheesy mat, but I gave this to a dear friend of mine who had been asking me for years to do a picture of a potter forming clay. This was a quick picture, gotten from Ognjen Karabegovic's photo at PMP. It was such a lovely close up of the fingers and hands. This was a 5"x7" piece, color pencil on black Artagain paper and done in a much looser style than I usually do. These are part of some thank yous for people who were very supportive. Actually I did make some changes, but didn't take another pic, I made the background apron feather up higher and got rid of the two black holes that are looking at ya. Just forgot to get another picture update. I like this image and might try to do it again in a larger format and maybe with acrylic. Thanks for stopping by and have a great painting week.
