Troutman

This is a drawing of my husband, best friend and the love of my life. This is Jim with a beautiful brown trout at the West Branch of the Delaware River. I call him the Troutman ...because he is truly a master with the fly rod. I love you, baby!

You really got an excellent pencil-hand, Renata! Thanks for your lovely comments!!

A fisherman's dream. It's nice you can capture your husband so lovingly. It's a good portrait because it tells us a lot about him and a lot about you at the same time. Does it look like him? Maybe, maybe not. But that's not the point.

This is a wonderful drawing you did. You did a remarkable job on the shading and detail of your husband. I like the added touches of the fishing pole and fish lures on the picture border. It added so much personality to it.
