Portrait Sketches


A quick sketch of faces from recent sessions “ST” and “R”.
Both: 9”x 12” fountain pen, sanguine and chalk on toned paper.

    I always simply adore your portraits, and these are no exception!
    Oh wow...such expressions...so differing.
    The first speaks to me of supreme self-confidence and power;
    the second seems diametrically opposite - he is withdrawn, unsure of what to think or say. Oh such downcast eyes...makes me feel sad for him.:(
    Another couple of masterpieces, Anthony!
    Truly magnificent...:)

    Have a Great Weekend.:))

      The older model, “R” of course is left playing the part of the withdrawn and sad.. The younger model “ST” obviously hasn’t had to endure the additional years☺
      Thank you

    wow don't know the first one but the expression oh my, what you do with it, it's surely a gift now the second face i know well and as usual you draw him so wonderfully...what i love the most is age is never a factor her, all paintings all drawings are beautifully done by you

      Both are regular models I have been drawing from for years.. We’re getting old together, or so it seems.
      Thank you
