Portraits & Faces
Drawing, painting, or sculpting portraits is a discipline in itself, a world apart from other venues, and always a challenge to "capture" the personality and character of the person. The most difficult portrait for me has been my self-portraits. A most interesting fact is no two self-portraits are ever the same.
