Debbie Harry drawing on A2 paper in graphite. I have recently returned to drawing, and with graphite and charcoal.
For some time I have wanted to create my own version of the fantastic photograph of Debbie Harry by Chris Stein and this drawing is the result.
Debbie Harry Pencil Drawing
Every now and ahain when I am painting landscapes, I like to have a break and change to something completely different and this is the cas with this drawing. It is a completely different experience working in close detail to working with a broad brush on a large canvas. The technique here was to create something near photographic yet still retaining the pencil work and the aspects of a graphite drawing which make them so appealing.
I also like to revisit celebrity artwork every so often and for me, this image is truly iconic and really captures the essence of the time.
