Allyn Cox Drawings


Today we look at some more drawings by American muralist Allyn Cox.  We start with my favorite of today's set, an exceptionally good drawing of an older man.  The detail is outstanding, especially when you consider that this is likely a study, or practice drawing, for a more extensive work.

  1. Yes. Superb. He looks like God taking a coffee break from the Sistine Chapel ceiling. "Not that sermon about the teaspoon left at the bottom of the washing up bowl again. I'm going for a breather, Adam."

    1. Or maybe he's telling Adam, "No, no. I'm too tired. I couldn't possibly make you a wife AND a boyfriend."

  2. This is lovely. I'm guessing, drawn from height to get that perspective. His mature musculature is wonderfully detailed. Very much the man before us.

    1. Yes, the perspective is a big element. This is one of those I like even more every time I look at it.
