works in progress – it’s a bit sketchy

BickellQuickSketch1

This is a preliminary pencil study for a commission i’m working on. It will be very large, 48″ x 48″ when complete. There is a lot of nature going on in the full panel, this is just a crop i did for the client so they could see the style of drawing i was proposing. The part shown above is only about 1/6th of the whole piece. This will be done on a large sheet of watercolor paper that i have to buy on an enormous roll because the dimensions are above average. It will have a deckle/torn edge all around and be mounted on top of a darker mat board then framed.The framed piece will be LARGE and in charge.

See? i told you guys i was busy making art even thought i’ve had no new shop listings in a while!

i have 4 other commissions that i’ll be able to post progress on in the next week or so, so stay tuned. And i have 2 completed commissions i can’t post yet “just in case”, because they were ordered as father’s day gifts and haven’t been given yet. After dad’s day, i’ll share.

The new projects are all VERY different from one another and will be keeping me on my toes! Hope i can keep up!
