Here's a new portrait on Miliani paper that I bought since it was on sale and thought I would try. It's very texturey even after many layers of pastel. I usually don't like this much texture for portraits but it does give it a nce look.
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.
