Hi that's a good drawing was Plato in shadow on the 2nd ? As your drawing shows it in full illumination ? . How,long did it take. Usually after 30 mins the shadows change that make it a tricky one keep at it

Hello Pat, 

Yes,the sketch shows it in full illumination.(Cyprus+2 hours)

The sidewalk Astronomy.I show the people the moon and sketching the same time,is very difficult but i love this!

About 2 hours.First the border and shadows and after i fill up.I lost the detail in the hard of Platon. 

Sorry for my English.

          Thanks

There would not be that much diference with time zones the shadows travel left to right. . All the same a great drawing

Beautiful drawing, Marios. The Moon is something I would love to sketch but the ability is just way beyond me. I cannot draw anything that resembles the 3D effect seen.

Thanks for posting your drawing Marios.  It is really nice to see  someone 'image' in the way we all used to do it.  Great stuff, thank you.
