My latest pastel is 14x11, which takes quite a while longer than 8x10. I was waiting all Spring for the trees to fill in, a great day, and not many cars parked all over during lunchtime. I took out a few telephone poles.
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.
