Drawing #32

Okay - this is the craziest drawing thing that's ever happened to me.  I was doing this drawing of a facebook friend and it turned out looking like my brother (who looks like my father).  No my brother doesn't have this hairdoo etc... but the face is him.  I was visiting with his wife and kids that day, so maybe I was thinking of him when I got back home to my drawing?  Anyhow.... its totally crazy.   .....  So here's my brother in fancy duds....  and I have no idea why!

Drawing #31

Just a fella - don't know him that well.  He's a nice guy.  He likes to cook and bring goodies to bingo.  I'll have to find out a little more about him.  I'm thinking I'll ask him to model for the artists group, but I have no idea if he'd be okay with that. 


Drawing #30

A drawing of my neighbor. His name is Denis and he's a cutie. He can be found out on the porch having a smoke - at any given time of the day or evening. A very nice guy.  He was a lot of fun to draw.  I've convinced him to be a model for an upcoming portrait live model session.  I'm sure everyone will enjoy drawing him.

Drawing #26


SOLD

Drawing of a friend (Chris).  Let’s say it’s in his younger days since I unintentionally made him look younger.  Oh well – could be worse.   About the portrait…

His eyes and hands are important for his art, although I’d like to suggest that his perceptions are equally important.  His art is not a matter of seeing and doing as much as understanding what is before him.   These things all come together within his frame of reference:  the lotus flower (way of thinking), the closed mouth (way of speaking / listening), and the glasses with reflections (way of seeing and remembering).
