The Accountant

5x8 black chisel marker and collage on sketchbook paper done today; photo courtesy jbucky/PaintingFriends.  In the reference a man was standing in front of clear glass lights.  I decided to add collage elements of some old credit union statements in the round globes and also along his glasses.  To me he looked like an accountant thinking of figures, sums, payments, interest and penalties.

Greek Fisherman

8.5x6 ink contour line drawing on Color Sketch tinted paper done last month, another Greek-themed work.  With this WetCanvas challenge photo courtesy of Athena, we were to do a continuous contour line, which means you start at a spot and never lift up your pen.  I used Micron 01 by Sakura.  This old man of the sea's name is George and he owns a fish restaurant there where the catch of the day is the special.  I had planned to add color but several other artists talked me out of it.
