The drawing is of American Blues legend Chester Burnett aka Howlin' Wolf. It is A3 size and took me approximately 40 minutes, which must be a record for me as pencil drawings usually take me a week! I enjoyed using this medium, not only because it is a lot faster, but because you can layer it up as many times as you like without having to erase anything. The chalk highlighting really brings the piece to life and for my first attempt, I don't think it's half bad. I think this would look really good as part of a series. Looking forward to using the pencils next! :)
