The Green Knight

The Green Knight. A short sketch at work with a Colleen green colour pencil, a Colleen 2B pencil and a Chinese red pencil. I increased the darkness of the piece with software.

    Wow, that is pretty intense!

    If there is blood oozing out from the neck, that would be even more dramatic!

    Thanks Wilfrid.

    Check out the cover of this Penguin book, it is simply out of this world. Amazing imagery.

    This illustrator is very good.

    It's probably John Howe, not Alan Lee.
