I've missed quite a few Fridays at the Lit over the last month or so but here's a new sketch after 2 hours (left a little earlier than usual). The is Michael B who has posed for us maybe 5 times now. On the left is the latest and on the right is about 3 years old back when all i did was pencil or charcoal.
I really enjoy the challenge of capturing the likeness of the model, the essence of their expression, and all of the nuances that makes them unique.
Most of the portraits on my blog are drawn during a 3 hour model sitting at the Literary Cafe in Tremont, Ohio. Anyone can sign up to be drawn by several artists who come in on Friday night.
