How DOES he do that...always look so regal??
ReplyDeleteOr perhaps is is your amazing skill in portraiture that creates the power in his poses...
There is such dignity, such bearing...oh WOW :)
He does have a regal bearing, I agree. I love to draw him. He has many challenges. he has had to be strong to endure.
DeleteI do think his strength shows through.
Thank you
Straining to climb, and straining to rise up,what has he been doing in your mind to cause such effort? good ones, great ones, always have to rise, maybe he's tired of being great....
ReplyDeleteThe pose for the first drawing was well acted out. I do like the implied drama. I’m not sure what he was thinking as he settled into the pose. He’s not much of a talker, a true artist. He converses more through his poses.
DeleteI really like the poses and the treatment,Tony.Well done.You have got a great model!
ReplyDeleteHe is a good model, which makes the sketching come together so much easier.
