Fallen King - Drawing
I randomly sat down the other day to draw a picture. I decided to draw a chess piece. I've no idea why. I have always been intrigued by the quote from The Count of Monte Cristo where Edmond says, "King's to you, Fernand" so I guess this is another reason why I ended up drawing it.
The perspective didn't turn out quite right, but I left it. Also, the cross's shadow isn't correct either, but I wasn't game enough to change it.
I ended up finding a Bible verse that suited, so I was very pleased about that! Credit to the shadow and the drawing medium goes to Jacob for his help and the loan of his graphite pencils. :D

Excellent picture. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your drawings.
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite bit about this is the title. It almost deserves a piece of music...
ReplyDeleteThe picture and the verce are quite good as well. :-)
Ooh, this is awesome, Bushy! :D I love it! Thanks for sharing with us. :)
ReplyDelete@Jonathan: Thankyou! I'm sure you'll see more... eventually. ;)
ReplyDelete@Gabriel: Thankyou, Gabriel! :D If it ever inspires a score from you, I'd love to hear it. :)
@Grace: Thanks lovely! I'm glad you like it. :D
It's been a long time since I've seen an original natural media drawing from you, Aussie. This is amazing! I especially love the title (and the font) and how you incorporated the verse into the piece.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure a piece with this title from Gabriel would be awesome! :)
Philly comment!! *beams*
ReplyDeleteThankyou, my Philly! I'm so happy you like it. It was very fun to draw. :D
Any piece from Gabriel is awesome. ;)
I like that! It looks really neat! I love the title too and I think the shadow of the cross being different, just fits somehow. :)
ReplyDeleteTo the KING be all the glory!
