William

[Josef Sy]

Thanks Debra and Alex. I switched the picture with better quality and some close ups. Cheers.

[Margaret Ferguson]

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

[Garth Herrick]

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.

[Sara Lasso Lopez]

Beautiful, delicate, sweet and sutile

[Heidi Maiers]

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

[Patricia Joyce]

I really like this, very solidly done. Very nice piece.

[Terri Ficenec]

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

[Josef Sy]

Margaret. I use Mungyo Gallery pastels (48) and NuPastels (24).

Thanks Margaret, Garth, Sara , Heidi, Patricia and Joyce for the wonderful comments.

Heidi, yes he is my son and the mommy really liked it and so did he.

[Josef Sy]

This are the pastels I used.

[Thomasin Dewhurst]

This is very nice as well, Josef. I admire your confidence and ease with pastels - a medium I just don't get along with at all.
