New Drawing: Gloin’s Locket

Posted on April 15, 2014 by Cynthia Griffith

I certainly took my time with this one — I promised to draw it for my friend Gloin (on Facebook), but since the first drawing I did of that character was also my first ink after a very long break… it was a bit shaky and rushed. This time, I wanted to do something a little more special. 🙂

A little from the info page:

Black Magic ink and inkwash on 11×14 Bristol, using Winsor & Newton series 7 sable brushes (sizes 2 and 3). Also used black and white pencils for some details. Sketched first in blue pencil directly to the Bristol, using a photo ref of my husband posing for the drawing.

And here‘s the link to the finished drawing. Be sure to check out the large size so you can see more of the detail. Thanks for looking!

About Cynthia Griffith

I have way too many interests and hobbies, and continually cycle through them -- paying attention to some, while others wait for when I can get around to them again. My main interests are sewing and costuming (I enjoy historical clothing, such as 18th and 19th century, as well as fantasy costumes like elves and hopefully someday even dwarves), as well as getting back to art by drawing fan art of Thorin Oakenshield and Company. My husband Christopher and I spend a lot of time together, enjoying the outdoors and shared hobbies such as juggling. This blog and website is my way to share what I'm up to with friends and family.
