Title: Favourite GT photo in pencil
Post by: Angus Hulme on February 04, 2011, 05:35:11 PM
G'day all,

Thought you fellas might be interested in my latest artistic project. It's a (45cm x 35cm) pencil sketch of my current PB GT, with original photo included so you could see what I started with. I decided to include the homemade lure that this fish was caught on, and even though the lure was not in the original photo, 'artistic license' allowed me to add it in there ;)

Now I make no bones about the fact that this sort of art work is not a new concept, because obviously artists have been sketching photos since cameras were first invented. You may have seen Andre Van Wyk's posts recently about artist Craig Bertram Smith, and his pencil sketches. Lovely work, undoubtedly, but if any of you Australian-based members are looking for something similar locally, drawn by a bloke who loves GTs as much as you do, then do not hesitate to PM me, or send an email to: [email protected], or even give us a call on 0409 052 933.

Thanks for looking
Angus
