940 - The Melancholy Cowboy


Today on JSVB, we endure a visit from The Melancholy Cowboy.  I've realized that lately I've been ignoring my sketchbook.  If there's a sure way to work up a major artist's block, ignoring practice and fundamentals is it. 

Don Hahn compiled and edited all 1,000-plus pages of Walt Stanchfield's master class notes into two amazing volumes called "Drawn To Life".  I used a sketch from Volume Two by Ed Gutierrez as my reference and starting point.
