I completed these two portraits of my nephew 9 months apart. Two completely different people from the one I painted in Dec. 2020 and the one I just completed This month.
Before I know it, he’ll be getting married!

Video Sitting Sessions
Over the last few days i’ve been asking friends and family to sit for me via Skype, Zoom or any other video app. The video apps tend to have poor resolution so it’s been an advantage for me because I could only sketch the general facial landmarks of my sitters’ faces. I got away from being too detailed with my drawings.

I don’t know why it’s so hard to sketch my father, but I do it every chance I get. Practice makes perfect. I think all these sketches are preparatory work for a painting of him. A little of him from this past weekend.
