Things I Like - Art

Phenomenal pencil drawings by RJ Blanchette - you will want to see these closer, click on each to enlarge.

St. Michel Menton

Wood Island Light

Cathedral Lausanne
Even more impressive when you learn that the “artist literally hammers the paper with rock-hard graphite to achieve the rich tonal array [that] simultaneously diminishes and increases the importance of the subjects he presents.”

Be sure to check out the WIPS section of his site where he has documented the development of some of his pieces through photos taken throughout the process. Amazing.
