Beautiful drawing Chris!
Great energic strokes. I like a lot your choice of colors too.

Chris,

I just saw this--what a beautiful drawing! I've been staring at the close-up, admiring the exquisite marks that suggest the features by describing the edges and transitions of the different planes. As a whole it projects life and immediacy. I'd like to see this in person.

Can you post details of other parts of the drawing?

Ok! Ok!

It is not the artist that made this great drawing. It is of course, the paper I told her to get! GEEZ!

I had to dig my workshop art supply list out of the trash (computer) to find this. It is a beautiful paper and a beautiful drawing.

Nice drawing Chris. I like his expression. He looks just slightly uncomfortable befitting for his age. :-)

Dear Chris,

You are giving us so much to look at with relative little application. Great work! Here the term "less is more" hits the target.
