http://www.illustrator-luciana-orr.com/architectural-stone-heads
The first of these images are from the ‘Green Man Awakens’ series. The inspiration came from three unusual stonework heads which were above the doorways of several adjacent cottages in Wimbledon, London. This was the first time I had used the conte crayon which delivered beautifully dramatic results. The fourth image ‘Silent Guardian’ was drawn from images collected at the time of my ‘Artist in Residence’ at the Christchurch Arts Centre, New Zealand. These originals have recently been released for sale.
