I completed this ink drawing (# 6 thus far) of Ben a few days ago which was a bit of a challenge due to his beard. I feared the beard!! I think it turned out quite nicely and feel that I'm continuing to brush off the cobwebs when it comes to drawing. As you know, I haven't been drawing in such a long time as I mentioned before, and the IG piping community has inspired me to pick up the pencil & pens :) It was Nicky (@nicky_the_terrible) and her pipe & piper art that started it all for me.
It's been fun and sometimes tiresome creating these drawings, but I enjoy 'em so far. I keep searching on IG for interesting selfies (future prospects), especially when they're posing with their pipes, and you never know who will be next. It also is nice when someone offers me with some baccy to do them next :) I can't guarantee it'll happen, but in Grant's case...it worked out for the best because I found a perfect selfie!
So far all of my art has been framed and is hanging in the basement on my "Wall of IG Pipers! One of these days I'll post a photo of my collection :)
