Nelson Boren

Nelson Boren is an artist that I stumbled upon my freshman year at SOU. I was looking at something to draw for my final in one of my drawing classes and this is what I came up with. I took his ideas and made them my own. I made my friends put on these old cowboy boots and pose for me. Once I got the outline of the boots down I tried to capture the feeling that he was able to capture. The folds of the fabric and the detail that he so carefully placed into his work. There were many shadows which are hard to mimic when using pencil. I think that it would be fun to try this again but using a different type of medium.
