A Year has past...

I can't believe that today makes one year since my father passed. It still doesn't seem real. I made my first attempt at colored pencils a portrait of him. I am very happy with the outcome. I learned a lot about blending and shading the colors. I will have the opportunity to put to use what I have learned in future drawings.

On the porch

I have a lot of great old pictures of my father. Here is one of him as a young boy sitting on my grandmother's porch. I just started the shading and shaping today. I am looking forward to seeing how this one looks when it's done.
