Good Evening!
I’m posting a recent commissioned piece that was actually completed back in April as an anniversary gift. Unfortunately, due to the shutdown of many businesses during the “pandemic”, the frame was delayed and was not available for delivery until recently. So after the lovely lady received her present, I was granted permission to post the drawing.
This piece was drawn from a photograph which appeared on the front page of the Fort Hays, Kansas newspaper back in mid-Winter this year, 2020. The steam engine is known as “Big Boy” and was driven across the State of Kansas as a sort of nostalgic awareness. It was very impressive to witness due to its enormous size. Hope you enjoy.
The first photo is the actual reference used. The second is the commissioned drawing in its proper frame. I’ve added a few photographs showing some closeups below.
