"The Duke of Somerset" - an extremely simple no. 2 pencil drawing done 1/08/2024, of actor Brian Deacon in Henry VI, Part 2 (1983) directed by Jane Howell for the BBC Television Shakespeare, done in about 10 minutes. Would've been more detailed but my sister said "I'm bored and hungry, come eat with me" and that sounded pretty compelling.

#i didnt write any poetry today and all the drawing i did was continuing work on a self-portrait i started last week #im doing it in extremely short sittings but i think it's probably coming out better for it.#god knows more effort does not necessarily lead to better work. at least with my art.#my drawing #brian deacon #visual art #2024 #graphite #anyway brian deacon is so beautiful he's just god such a classically handsome face #the screenshots i took of him in character (and actually every screenshot i took from jane howell's wars of the roses)#is so depressingly grainy. why is the bbc television shakespeare always only available in crap quality #i took screenshots of other characters i intend to draw but since i was just idly sketching i was like why not #i took so many of brian deacon. it's a little embarrassing lol #goddamn tho he cute
