Spring is Here

We are having a pretty weekend.  Sunshine this morning is very encouraging.  And tomorrow is promised to be a lovely Easter.  I finished this drawing a couple of days ago and have decided that I like it.  I include a torso on this one.  I really need to work on drawing figures.  I'm calling this one The Fisherman and it is conte crayon on newsprint.

....and even more sketches

I'm still borrowing from family albums to practice the portrait sketching techniques which I learned in Ned Mueller's workshop in February.  I've also downloaded some free images from an internet photo site to use for practice.
