Artist's Comments

I am trying my hand at doing color pencil work once again. Of all the mediums this is my favorite. The likeness is close, but not on the money as you can see if you compare it with the photo I took it from. His head is too skinny, his chin is too big, his glasses too small and both my sons say the mouth makes him look like an old man. :) Oh well, I am rusty, but it was fun and I am pleased with my technique. I am not sure if it was my sons scanner that blurred the image or our computer. I still have one more drawing to put up. It is of my better half, Corey. Now that one is really off, but it still favors him. I will try to load it when we get dsl. It took almost an hour to upload this one.

I like :D much better than my drawings

Does the panel consider it morally justifiable to charge interest to countries whose population live in mud huts?
It's nicely done, although I think it could do with a bit more tonal range. Not wanting to sound arrogant or anything; just my opinion. When zoomed in it's more impressive than the thumbnail view, and I think that's because there's not enough contrast between light and dark.. it all seems very "light".

It's pretty cool though, and does look real. And I like the mouth, even though I don't know what the original looks like ;)

Thank you for your comment. I revised my comments on the picture if you want to go back and see what I thought was wrong with it. :)

Yes, I can see that now that I have it up and I appreciate your comments. I have gone back and revised my comments once I got it up if you want to go back and read what I found wrong with it. Though I didn't mention the lightness problem which I didn't really notice too much until you said something. Thank you for your comments.

Hah, sorry. I didn't mean to be too critical :) I just think that certain areas need going over in possibly a dark brown as opposed to the general skin coloured tone of it, eg below his chin, his forehead, under his ear, below his hair etc.

As I've already said, though, it's a really good pic :)
