This was the first time I'd ever drawn him smiling...and I must say how contagious it is. His right eye was done entirely by memory because the reference picture I used had hair completely covering one eye. For this portrait, I felt it was important to have both eyes smiling back.
Finished!
This is the close up of Michael from the whole, finished piece called "Precious Ones".
>> Created with chalk and charcoal on Strathmore series gray charcoal paper. This portrait took around 24 hours.
