Brian Scott
British portrait artist Brian Scott creates these incredible colored pencil close-ups. It is interesting to note that he is a self-taught artist. Students who love drawing eyes will really engage with his art. They way he crops his image down creates a striking composition of an often tender moment. He often uses Faber Castell Polychrome pencils.
