support a struggling NYU student!!

----------------------------------------------

it took me numerous weeks and many sleepless nights. i almost gave up in the beginning. it took a while to figure out how to draw the ball. i'd spend so much time just shading on area.. i used graphite, black/white charcoal.

this piece was an assignment for the advanced drawers in the class. (Meet the Artist, basically to pay Homage.) it gained a first place ribbon for Best Photo Reference in the art show in spring 2006. it was a lot of fun sitting on the side and watching the groups of people form around it. eventually someone told them that i did it. a freshman ran over and shook my hand. it makes hours of work worth it.

EDIT: 01/06/07 -

unfortunately i have to point out once again that i am not interested in a comment stating that you feel that this is "just a copy." Critiques are DISCOURAGED and that is a critique. I did not ask to receive a DD, so leave your negative remarks at the door
