First pastel portrait

My first portrait I did with pastels.

Landscape Sketch

A landscape sketch I did a while back. It's from a book just for practicing purposes.

My daughter Olivia

First charcoal drawing

My first charcoal drawing. It's my rendition of Vermeer's Girl with a pearl earring. ;-)
