Drawing a friend...

I'm blessed that my good buddy decided to pose for me. He's as excited about the portrait as I am and has agreed to pose for a long time. Best of all, he loves to talk and we have a good time while working together. Here is the first of many drawings/paintings. Eventually this will be transferred and painted, so keep you posted on the progress. The drawing so far has taken 10 hours. It is drawn on Strachmore Sketch paper, with a HB pencil. The only thing that I use otherwise is a kneeded eraser. Todd
