Sampler in graphite by Eric Beltz. Wonderful. Eric's bio says he teaches the "lost art of drawing" at UCSB and his most recent work recreates the look of a cross-stitched samplers. I really like that he's not drawing the stitches themselves but pixel-like boxes of varying shades.
This work is part of an upcoming group show:
