I really like the texture and emotion in this, but why is it in two pieces?

Wonderful piece this week. definatly looks remote. And breaking it up into 2 parts gives it a contemporary feel as well. I like it!

i like the sepia tone. and agree with leezy...there's much emotion in this.

beautiful work.

If you let Leezy know your thinking on dividing the image, would you let me know, too? I like the texture of the lodge.

This is a special image - maybe being personal has helped with it's emotion. I think you have done two images but have joined them for us to see the full view. I like them as two seperate pieces as well. Very beautiful :)

Thanks for the above remarks. I wish there was a better reason for cropping...but my scanning bed was too small to fit the entire drawing and I guess I was too lazy to take a digital picture. I used gesso, oak tag (my favorite surface), and graphite wash under a matte medium seal. This was during our first snowfall in beautiful southern PA.
