Graphite Lion

Every now and then I get a longing to use graphite, today was one of those days. I'm spending time printing various items in preparation for Patchings Art Festival in June and it's easier to start and stop with graphite while I change paper, refil inks, laminate etc.
I'm using one of my own photographs as a reference, the image size is about 12 x 10 on Fabriano Artistico Extra white.

Stunning. Absolutely beautiful. I really admire how much detail you get, it's just perfect. When I use pencil's they always have more of a sketchy quality. :)
