Gauntlet Drawing Complete! The Eternal Garden

The Eternal Garden
19x25"
charcoal

My final creative project of the drawing program at the Ani Academy is complete! This project, known as "The Gauntlet", is a demonstration of the mastery of your materials before moving on to different materials - paint. 

At 19x25", The Eternal Garden is the largest and most complex drawing I have done, and is packed full of references to the TV mini-series Over the Garden Wall. From Wert's tape of love poems for Sara to the reflection of the Beast in the teapot - all of the objects in this drawing appear in some form in various episodes of the show. 

This drawing has sold and is now part of a private collection.
