Deck the Halls

Leyendecker Master copy!!! This is even harder than Sargent. Decided to break from the rock. Spent too much time on this and I was distracted by the Tv. total 2 hours and nothing got done. Going to hit this again

Next time in Black in White, I was looking at it in color, and going set a time limit. I may also limit the amount of copying I do. For instance the next drawing will be of the eye, and just the eye.

Very tough. Also did it in PS because I'm sick of Acrylic. . .

I was getting pretty discouraged, but remembered Leyendecker is a freakin master. He's poured in countless hours of study and was probably a genius. Also one of the most well known and influential American Illustrators of all time. A contemporary of Rockwell and a student to Wyeth, I mean c'mon! I definitely have a new respect for the old masters.
