Prince of the Mountain
Graphite on Bristol Cotton, Circa 2022
23x29 in
Prince of the Mountain features a majestic bighorn sheep as he surveys his domain. The most challenging part was the rocks in the background. Probably the most time was spent working on the rocks.
The framing turned out really well. Something about the dark frame and matching especially makes the image pop. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite pieces.
