Black and White

I love engravings and pen pictures. Pictures that look sketched and penciled. These are some of my favorites that I've seen, primarily from AP Art History.

Albrecht Durer and Goya are two of my absolute favorite artists. I love old-fashioned drawings of exotic creatures. Ones created by their scientists. I always imagine being a person during that time, looking at the picture. There's an air of mystery and awe to them, and they just look hella cool.
