I greatly admire Edgar Allan Poe and all of his writings. Though he is best known for his poem "The Raven" I find his other short stories and tales of terror more interesting! I read them over and over again because they never get dull! Every time I read them they still send a shiver down my spine! I person favorite are 'The Pit and the Pendulum', 'The Gold Bug', 'The Tell-Tale Heart,' and many MANY more! The list goes on forever!
Lots of his writings are very rarely read even though they are amazingly written and intrigue the mind! I don't usually like to read, but I can't ever seem to put down his books! He his defiantly my favorite Author!
This being said, I was "Drawn" to the idea of creating a portrait of him in pencil. His Eyes were a bit tough, but I got them relatively close. I very much enjoy doing portraits such as these. I only just now started doing them and they seem to be turning out O.K.
