Arthur Morgan Reader (Fanservice)
I had to do this doodle cause I'm trying to do warmups every day by doodling either with a reference or in my imagination. Originally, I was going to doodle John Marston (because he's my hubby <3) but then the pose just fit Arthur more...
The reference:

Arthur Morgan is an art wizard
Typing this on my phone, please excuse my HORRIBLE formatting/grammar
He illustrates things he saw for a few seconds or was attacked by and is able to render them in a surprising amount of detail. Obviously the devs had an artist draw those sketches but it's canonically drawn by him and I think it’s really endearing and a good juxtaposition to his verbal expression that allows us to see how multifaceted he is.
It gives some insight into his gentler side in a way he’s unable to express to the people in his immediate social circle, others at camp make reference to his journal but never expressly see it. The only character in the game who could’ve potentially also known about his artistic skill in my mind would be Mary but their breakup likely left him with some difficulty and hesitance to outwardly express vulnerability so he instead uses his journal.
Sketches like this I imagine he did during the time skips where he wakes up in camp so he's likely using references
Whereas things like this are likely done during that loading screen time after the fact making him have an AMAZING photographic memory
It also brings the question of when did he start drawing, (if there's a canonical answer PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!) We know that when Dutch and Hosea took in John and Arthur they educated them however they don't exactly seem like the types to priorities sketching since in the grand scheme of things its not a necessity so I doubt art would've been in the curriculum.
My assumption based on his skill level would that he wasn't formally taught but definitely has a lot of practice so maybe him constantly being an outlaw always needing to be on the lookout made him extra observant and therefore better at recreating things from memory.(keep in mind I have no formal art training at all literally just a hobbyist so if you have any ideas lmk)
I think the sketches are a really humanizing part of the game as they really helped flesh him out as a character and build a link between the player that lets you get ripped to emotional shreds by the story. When you die and reload into the game having a journal full of new information and doodles based on what you LITERALLY JUST DISCOVERED is really freakin cool
Bonus headcannon tangent: in my silly little head I like to imagine teenage Arthur proudly showing a terrible drawing to the gang who all nod their head like yes yes excellent this is amazing and put it next to their actual photographs even though its the most hideous thing ever
Mainly just want to talk about this because it inspired me to branch out and learn that style rather than just sticking to my janky fan art so yea if you actually made it this far thanks for reading my little incoherent rant!!! Not a clue if I got anything right since most of it just comes from my observations in game and personal headcanons but I'd love to hear what you think or if this has been addressed somewhere :)

Icarus & Friends 🪽
ID: A simple silhouette study of Arthur during one of the last few adventurous missions of the game where you essentially- erm... hijack a hot air balloon for surveillance of an enemy gang to then take them all out from above. 🙃I love this mission for its prophetic yet heavenly imagery. I love Arthur. Gah... I love this game! 😣😫😭
