Ink Portrait On Handmade Paper
This portrait, based on one of Da Vinci's sketched studies of Leda, was for a larger art project (part of the 2013 Mystery Build), but the portrait drawing was such a blast that I'd be happy to do it again for anyone who wanted an old fashioned looking pen and ink portrait.
I added subtle color with light washes watercolor paint and metallic ink, but I could just as easily leave the portrait black and white.
The paper is delicate and should be framed; the picture, including the deckled edges that come from handmade paper, is approximately 8"x8". One photo here shows the portrait as part of the larger art piece.
