Description This was a commissioned fantasy portrait for some friends of mine. I really like how it turned out and I feel like it's one of my best pieces. I'm having a hard time coming up with a good title for it though. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

Graphite, 11'x14' on bristol vellum paper.

This piece is larger than my scanner bed so had to do two scans and blend together.

Thanks. The leaves at the bottom are without any references - just memory, so I'm glad that they turned out well.
