This latest drawing by our new Gold member, Canadian Laurene Spino, is superb example of graphite pencil art. She has a wonderful eye for detail that is used in a way that doesn't attract attention to itself, but it all combines to add a great degree of natural life to her subjects. Her art is so consistently masterful that I could have chosen any one of her drawings to be promoted to the Starving Artists Hall of Fame.

The balance, dynamism and energy, and her superb bokeh background all meld together into one believable and joyful whole.

Add Laurene's skilful execution and you have a drawing more than worthy of being my Editor's Choice.

Visit Laurene's gallery to see a close-up view of this drawing, and more of her superb work. The originals are not currently for sale but she offers top-quality limited edition prints of her work.
