This is a master copy I had to do for a class. The original is an ink drawing by Albreicht Durer that he did in 1521 of a 93 year old man. (which is pretty impressive considering the time period)
I did this in conte' on toned paper. It was pretty difficult and I'm glad I'm done. lol
Regardless of what one person seems to think, I feel this is an excellent piece and does not need to be "improved" in any way. I would guess 99% of the people on earth wish they could do half as well. Well done!
