Symphony of Grays

For quite some time I have just "doodled" little pictures here and there, it has been quite a while since I have actually sat and put a large amount of time into a picture. Every now and then I will get this urge to really use my artistic efforts and draw something that takes me a while to complete.

One of my graduation presents from a good friend was a sketch pad. Yes! I was thrilled to get a new one... an artist can never have to many sketch pads ;) But I didn't want to just draw or doodle a quick unimportant sketch in it's new fresh crisp pages...what sort of way is that to start a new sketch pad?!?! No, no it had to be something special, something interesting that when people look at it they would say "Wow! that is so cool!" That is what my intent was with this new pencil drawing of mine.

I got the idea for this picture from another picture I saw. Although you can't tell what it is, it is pretty fun to look at :)

Here are some close up views

This picture was really fun to draw, it took me three days to complete. Now I have a decent picture to start up my new sketch pad ;)
