Very sweet and classical looking. Reminds me of a few great Kinstlers that come to mind.

Pastel used well and wonderful.

Joseph,

This is beautiful! I like your sensitive and accurate characterization. His look is intelligent and appraising, as if he is scanning the distant horizon. All he needs is a cowboy hat !

I love his luminous skintones. Which brand of pastels did you use?

William is a sweet and appealing portrait, Josef. I too like the sideward intelligent gaze ahead, the glow and fall-off of the light, and the crisp precision in his features.

Nice tones and forms Josef - what a beautiful little boy. Relative, or commission? Either way, a treasure for his mama.

Nicely done Josef! Especially like the close-ups. You've captured the delicate features & softness of kids' skin at that age.
