Between the world of men and transcendent divinity there exists art. Art is the will to truth made physically manifest. It is more real then Reality. It is a dialogue triumphant over Time. – Andre Malraux

Rapture

This illustration was inspired by some of the sketches done by the old masters.  I love the look and feel of the old portraits that were done in charcoal or pastels, and I got the inspiration to create a piece that had the same feeling.

By working with sepia brown pencils on matching paper, I have achieved the look I wanted.  It was a lot of fun to do and I plan on doing more.
