Description
This is a drawing of a portion of the Michelangelo statue "Pietรก". The full statue depicts the body of Jesus on the lap of his mother Mary after the Crucifixion. I was inspired by Imaginee' s (Linda Huber's) drawing of the sculpture of "David" and wanted to do something similar.The drawing is A2 size, I used graphite pencils, putty rubber, paper stump and tissue.

Nice very well taken.
P.S You Catholic by any chance? Got any devotions to any saints? (I have one to St. Jude.)

Simply stunning! Full respect, over the past two years I've attempted Mary's face and got close to what I was aiming for then overworked it to destruction! My mission is to have a drawing worthy by Christmas Eve! I'm in awe of your talent, regards, Stewart.

Beautiful work, love the tenderness this one has. The texture is great, it has a hard stone look, you have a fine touch and I can see the time and patience that went into the drawing.

Brilliant - you've really caught the sculpture well. Looks almost exactly like I saw it in the Vatican
