Enrico Caruso pen & ink drawing, which is for sale at discount with prints by artist Stephen F. Condren, BFA-SAIC, of Condren Galleries, a Fine Arts Gallery, offering JPEG & PDF scans. Enrico Caruso has been a legend of opera houses all over the world since he set foot on the stage in LaScala Opera house (Teatro alla Scala). Caruso was at the peak of his career when the phonograph was in its infancy. Fortunately for advanced audio technology of today we can get a very good handle on what his voice was really like. The old wax cylinders were filled with static and other extraneous sounds that affected the tonal quality of Caruso’s voice. However, with current digital technology we are able to “clean up” the old wax cylinders of the unwanted sounds and make his voice come alive. Caruso is a celebrity of today and yesterday!
There are a number of online sites that will let you download Caruso’s amazing voice. The clarity is amazing and it only makes me wish that he were alive today so that we could properly record is voice for posterity.

Pen & Ink Celebrity Art
Pen & ink drawings are by for the most popular drawing medium to work with because it reproduces with such clarity and sharpness. However, there are time when the soft shade and shadows of pencil and charcoal bring out features of the person. Since my youth I have been drawn to the medium of pen & ink. There is just something exacting and right about the way the ink flows from the pen onto the paper.
Lightning Fast Celebrity Art
Like Enrico Caruso, I am a lightning artist and within moments I can jot down the character of any face or figure. These pen & inks that I do are first jotted down in pencil and then quickly finished in ink. On the average it takes me about 5 minutes to draw each portrait. If you look closely at any of my drawings you can see the light pencil lines. Of course I can do very detailed pen & inks but I seek the brevity of capturing the moment.

Pencil & Charcoal Celebrity Art
Pencil and charcoal also make for great celebrity art. The quality that pencil and charcoal offer are the soft gradual change of tones. When you are working with pen & ink you need to work hatch marks to secure the shade and shadow. However, with pencil and charcoal you can ever so gradually develop the shadows.
Scholars & Authors
A large sector of people in both Academia and Research have been placed here as well. Certainly people like Vincent Van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Albert Schweitzer, and Bertrand Russell, though not celebrities on the screen and of viral internet fame, certainly qualify in my mind as celebrities and so I have place them here.

The line work is good for a pen & ink drawing. The difficulty with doing pen & inks of young people is that it makes them look older. Each line ads years to the age of the subject. In this case you can see that the cross-hatching which is used to give shade and shadow to his face is making him look a bit older. He still looks good and young as well but the hatching does cost on age.
