My son




After A long weekend of too many little and big kids, I took last night for myself and did this of my son. This is the same young man that I did a long time ago with a full beard and 30" of hair. The beard came off and the hair went for wigs.

This is charcoal, on pearl Canson Mitientes, about 12'x16".

Thanks Michele, this was fun to do. The white is not as bright in the actual drawing.

Thank you Lon,

Maybe this will look better. What shows as grey in his hair is not really grey. I don't know why it photographed like that. I'll take a better photo some day.
