The Trio

This one has been brewing for a month or so and I've now got it out of my system after buying some decent paper for pencil drawing (and possibly for inktense pencil too).

It's a tribute to the late Ennio Morricone who wrote (among many other things) the soundtrack to The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.  Together with director Sergio Leone, he created the greatest ever shootout in a Western film.  Only the one shot but the music and the way the camera darts between th three protagonists is just genius.  And that's why this drawing is called The Trio.  It's named after the music that set the whole tone for the gunfight.

I quite like this one.  The character from The Man With No Name (top) and Angel Eyes (middle) come through.  Tuco at the bottom is the worst of the three, even if those wide open eyes do make him instantly recognisable.  So, yes, this is up for sale.

This didn't take long.  I have the gazebo up in the garden, so I'm going to have a go at some sort of painting next.
