Head of Achilles
Here is silverpoint drawing #19:

Head of Achilles, 2009, silverpoint on prepared card (contrast enhanced in Photoshop), 11" x 8.5".
I'm restricting myself to only posting the better silverpoint drawings here. All of them (probably) will eventually find themselves on the Silverpoint a Day blog. I must say that I'm learning a lot from this exercise, about drawing, structure & so on. I'm also finding ways of integrating my regular themes (mythology & so forth) into this series.
