Hi everyone! This is Robert Aramayo in pencil. I’m pleased with how this picture turned out, although it didn’t go that smoothly! I’m editing the videos of the full picture process at the moment, if you’re interested in how this picture evolved look for the finished video here on YouTube, I’ll post it soon! It’s in an exhibition at the moment in The White Horse bookshop gallery, Marlborough High Street Uk.
