This piece is lovely.
He's got such a noble 'aire' which is conveyed through his pose & face.
I love how you've captured him in mid-tracking.
Makes me feel like I'm there, waiting to hear what he's found!

He's actually a low level nobleman though he prefers the countryside to the court Gary wanted his sketches to be as though we were catching a glimpse of them as they lived... kind of like we were a member of the hunting/ war party.

Thank you. The idea was to try and make it look like a traditional pencil or pen sketch and capture the character 'in situ'
