charcoal of Christ

Here is a drawing that is both charcoal and oil paint on dark canson paper. I have been wanting to do a drawing of Christ for some time now, and, finally, last semester I found the time to do it. He is so important to me.

charcoal of artifact

This is a drawing I started while I was at my parents house for a weekend a few months ago. This artifact was the reason we started taking so many trips to South America to study archeology, so it came to mind when I was looking for something to draw. As soon as I finish it I will give it to my Mom.

I love this cast! Tell me this guy doesn't have a story or two to tell...
