    Default Lunar Eclipse



    This is a sketch I made back in 1989 when I had no film for my camera. I stayed up all night and drew it in stages. I wish I had the original photo that I took of the drawing as I no longer have a scanner.

    I've tired color before in a sketch. Must be difficult to get it right. Your sketch does capture the hue.

    Clears,
