awesome job jerry

Alan Corbett 09 Feb 2006

You have captured the genius very well. I tried ballpoint pen in drawing and although I had some success (mainly in line drawing and cross-hatching) found other media more to my taste.

Svitozar Nenyuk 07 Feb 2006

Well done! He is my favorite writer.

David Holcombe 07 Feb 2006

There is something moody about this portrait, much like the man himself. The red around the eyes and nose almost give him a sick look, much as he was close to his death. Such an extraordinary man. The sweater looks like a 17th century color. That adds a touch of royalty.

Christine brand 07 Feb 2006

He Looks like a King!!! Amazing persona in this one!!

LL Eveland 05 Feb 2006

Love it!

Anita Thompson 05 Feb 2006

I agree with Jennifer...better than a photograph! Wonderful illustration!!
