I've been trying to do portraits in color, but I just can't get the pencil crayons to tone down to my level. I'm not usually much for color, and they are just so intense. Anyhow.. I went to the dollar store and bought a box of colored blackboard chalk for a dollar and gave it a try. I actually quite like the result. Working with it is a bit difficult, but I like the skin tones way better than the pencil crayons.
So here's a cute fellow I play bingo with at the nursing home.
