  1. \oh my geat graphics in this one the first while he's standing he looks fine, the third, he looks belligerent, that to me would be an expression impossible to draw, so you're really really good, or else darned lucky (and I don't believe that) love series, they're so enjoyable

    1. Thank you
      I think the grey paper contributes to the perceived expressions in the last two sketches. He’s the least complicated in the first. What a difference fewer lines make☺

  2. He looks like a Viking. Nice study of the human form. I once read that the most beautiful thing to paint is the human body. I think that can be true.

    1. I do think it’s easier to express and experience emotions through images of the body, be it human or even animal. Although I can get just as excited by old twisted trees or crashing waves on a shore.

  3. I perceive him to be a North American Indian...there is an unmistakable aura of ancient wisdom surrounding him.
    These are magnificent sketches...so incredibly atmospheric :)

    1. His features with the long hair does contribute to your perception. I draw him so often these day. He has become just “ST”.
      He is very wise ☺
      Thank you
