Description This was done using a suggested method of Rita Ria's,which is pastel pencil on soft velour paper..something I had never tried but I am well pleased with the results and will be doing more.So anyway this is George Harrison,a drawing of the back of his Dark horse solo album.I tried drawing it from the CD but it was just too small,luckily I found the original LP at Half Price records for a bargain.I still think the LP'S were nice because you got those big sleeves.Anyway...thanks Rita I love this medium....very effective.Pastel on Velour,16" x 24".

I could be faving this simply because it's George Harrison during the dark horse years... but furthermore I'm faving it because it's exceptional artwork... really really soft warm tones, but not through fuzzing and compromising detail... it's so very groovy.

My brother (ATLbladerunner) introduced me to your stuff today. You are very talented. I love the George Harrison. Sounds like a very unusual technique, but what effect! I agree with Ben, you need to get some serious cash for portraiture!
