Description
Week 17 of the 52 week drawing challenge. Today a sleeping angel based off of a cemetery statue. Love cemetery statues for various reasons 1) the subjects always look peaceful 2) not a lot of details to the statues to worry with 3) statues are all one colour which is terrific for graphite.
Today's reference picture comes from the lovely gallery of
and you can see the reference picture here.... 
In the original picture I could not make out the knot work in the lower right corner so I ended up making my own design based on what I could see. The other problem was that my sketchbook is creamy coloured paper so I just could not get the lighting right in the upper right corner so I just drew the angel my way.
9x12 sketch book, 4B, HB and 4H graphite pencils.

Celtic angels look rather beautiful in my opinion. I think it's because I'm half Irish, that's why XD
