This was a 40-minute that ended the morning. It was done on a 24" x26" sheet of Durotone "aged newsprint" paper. The head is a little large proportionately, and dominates the study. His lower legs seem a little short, but that is partly due to the angle they were bent at in sitting in a comparatively low chair.
These images can be viewed a little larger and with a truer value range if you click on any of the images posted.
From what I understand, it is a common trap to fudge the proportions to fit within the paper, rather than allowing the extremities continue off the edge in proper proportion.
