This fine pen & ink drawing of Warren Buffett is a contour line rendering. I did not want to copy a photograph of Warren because that offers nothing. If you want to copy a photo then why waste your time? The way an artist should approach a photo is to abstract from it. A photo always gives a better image of the subject, but now always the right mood. When I abstract his image from a photo I treat his as though he is sitting right before me. I want to capture his image not copy it.

Image
The drawing lends itself nicely to a black pen & ink rendering because of the lighting gives nice shading. There is too much darkness on the left side of the photo so omitted it. My focus was on the delineation of his face. If you look carefully you can see that I have omitted key points that are clear in a photograph, like his glasses and hair. His hair is just touched on without much line work to show it, and his left eye glass is missing the connection to the nose piece.

Rendering
This drawing is a simple contour line rendering that shows how Warren Buffett looks. I have no interest in doing a drawing the is filled with hatched lines to make every shade and shadow of the image.
