Gordon B Hinckleyby ~babymint34

Traditional Art / Drawings / Portraits & Figures

This is a picture of Gordon B Hinckley, President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. And also a person that I greatly admire and respect. I quickly finished this in memory of his wife's death a couple days back.

Also, on a more technical note, this is the first time I have done a portrait using graphite and charcoal. Took me about 8 hours in all to complete.

Wow. It's really good. I've done a final of a self protrait using black charcoal. Good Job. Are you LDS? I am

Oh wow; this is amazing! The shading is perfect, as is the form; looks almost like a black and white photo. I'm new to the Church so I don't know much about him, but all my friends love him, and everything I've read about what he did in his time as Prophet makes me know he was a wonderful man. I'm so glad you did this
