One of my son's friends commissioned me to do a rendition of Rembrandt's etching sceneery in whatever medium I choose to and so the next few sketches are of these. The first ws done in pen and ink.

The second was done with charcoal.


The thrid was done with acrylic. Each came out with their own unique qualities for better or worse.
