Commissioned Portrait.
This was a Christmas present so I didn't want to post it until after the holidays.
2007 I worked on improving the texture in my artwork. In fact I almost never blend the graphite anymore unless it is an area where I want to fill in with graphite and remove it all.. just to stain the paper.
Thanks for stopping by!!
