Portrait


I've been trying to get the time to do more watercolor. The pencil and the smudge tool are just so much more portable. Although every day I've been looking at a watercolor book I bought recently: Pasadena Sketchbook by Joseph Stoddard. I love his incredibly loose linework and washes. Very inspiring -- and he's a local artist painting locales very familiar to me. More of his work can be seen here.

And I love your wash here! The shirt's color is so warm and drew me right in.

Your pencil work always looks like watercolor to me. Beautiful portrait and the violin player is stunning too.

Wow this is BRILLIANT. Gosh. I agree with jana too - your pencil work does havea watercolour feel. I'm so envious of this skill you have.

What a beautiful portrait -- the pose is dead on, the folds in the pants, the expression on the face -- everything is so well executed.
