Sheep Sketch with Indian Ink

 Done in 2010 this sketch took me more/less than 20 minutes to draw.
 It was drawn with Indian Ink and with a pen nib in A4. This was an exercise in which I had to make a research to find an ink sketch of an artist. After finding the sketch I wanted to draw, I had to try to draw it as close as possible from the original, almost imitating the artist's lines, the techniques he used. It was a great exercise for me, it helped and it was a teaching moment for me, because being an artist also means having the need to observe and be focused in every detail.

The original sketck:


Sheep Sketchbook (1972), drawing with pen, Henry Moore (1898-1986)
