Inspiration

"Bouquet for a Mom" - WIP 3
colored pencil
9 x 12"

Recently, I had the pleasure of attending an opening at the Keny Gallery here in Columbus for Lowell Tolstedt, whose drawings are excellent in every sense: delicate, intricate realism of simple, yet compelling compositions. Much of the work in this show was colored pencil work along with several silver point and gold point drawings. As an artist who works primarily with the medium of colored pencil, Mr. Tolstedt's work and the level he has achieved as an artist are an exciting inspiration for me. Take a moment to look at some of his work: http://www.kenygalleries.com/featuredexh.html
