9. Testing for Court


This zoo-theme made me think of the time earlier in the Autumn when I was hired as a court artist. It's fairly rare in Finland - artists are hired only for the most interesting (for the media) cases. So I had to get the fastest possible technique together over the weekend. This is one of those tests. I used my favourite paper - Fabriano colore - a red conte crayon and a black wax crayon. In this test I also used a blue colour pencil for colour contrast and a brush pen to add detail. It's scary how fast you can come up with a decent likeness with this technique! I think this took about 10 minutes.
