This is my try at creating a stencil print version of a sketch by the artist, Guy Denning,
who drew it as a preliminary for his painting,

"We Shall Be Hypocrites"

You can see Guy Denning's sketch at


 Its a picture that I return to, time & again,
 just to 'feel' it one one more time. 
The sketch is in charcoal & conté crayon, & doesn't exactly lend itself to spray paint, but I wanted a 'hand-made' version of this picture rather than the photo I had. 
Guy had sold the sketch before I first saw it.
Also, I just wanted to see if I could do it at all.  
I'm just pleased to have captured something of her expression. 
Anyway, Guy Denning's work is special, check it out here ...
