RECENT WORK
A friend of mine, Ann has these two adorable grandkids. Here is my effort to do graphite portrait sketches of them. I did these on gessoed canvas panels. When I finish they are somewhat light in contrast, stark in sharpness and fragile, i.e. graphite smears. However, when sprayed with Prismacolor Final Fixative the sharpness develops a softer and darker more pleasing tone and the work is thus also somewhat protected from the elements.
