Wacom Pen Holder Life Study

Finally got back to some arting after a few days of being lazy and relaxing. Been a while since i've gone so long with doing anything digital :S still been drawing a lot on paper though during quiet moments at work...

So, today i decided to start getting down to some life studies. I tried to find the simplest object i could, which was my Wacom Intuos pen holder. It was a lot harder than i thought and i really had to wrestle this one. On the plus side it forced me to tidy up my art desk...

I've already started learning about light behaviour over various surface types just from this one study, so i shall definitely try and keep up the habit.
