Do you guys remember those Absolute Vodka advertisements in magazines where they would take their vodka bottle and make an art piece from it? I thought they were pretty cool and a great marketing technique. One that caught my eye was the rendition they did with a trumpet. The shiny metal, the beautiful chrome and interesting reflections the photographed trumpet reflected challenged me to recapture it with this 1994 pen and ink drawing. I was amazed that I pulled it off quite well for not tracing or for not having experience with the direction of light.
