This drawing has been a long time in the making. I have already made two posts about the intermediate states, and they are two years old! Here they are:

But I thought it would be a good project to finish it as a means to get back in drawing. There has been so many obstacles in the latest couple of month that my productivity has been dropping to a very low level. In two days there will be Inktober and I will make every last one of them! Should be a good way get back to Phill and all the rest.

The drawing of the Oracle was just me improvising a drawing as I wanted to try to use a grey paper intaglio I had made. There are three layers grey paper (from some overlayed photos of real paper), a black pencil and a white pencil. All of it of course digital and made with Krita, my favourite open source painting application. The drawing will be made available in high resolution as Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.

As the drawing is digital I show both the black and white layers here:
