This drawing by James Montgomery Flagg is as confident and brash as Flagg himself.
The drawing is large– nearly 30 inches (76 cm) and appears to have been drawn mostly from the elbow.
Like Franklin Booth, Flagg created values using numerous parallel lines:
However, unlike Booth, Flagg used bold lines, aggressively combining pen and brush. Booth carefully planned his drawings, but you can see from Flagg’s pencil lines how loose and fluid his preparations were.
This is not digital drawing. You don’t see much like it these days.
