My newest Charcoal Portrait displayed in Greenwich: the child's charcoal portrait

I thought it'd be nice to show this new work which I displayed (framed) in Greenwich, Connecticut. Let me also take a moment to remind everyone that these works must be carefully handled until they are framed with a double matt and glass.

Arts to the Avenue in Greenwich, Connecticut on the occasion of the Greenwich Arts Council's 35th anniversary

It was great to be in Greenwich, Connecticut on Saturday drawing portraits in charcoal and catching up with my fellow CSOPA artists. That the weather held up was wonderful. I made many new friends in Connecticut and really appreciated the Starbucks cappuccino one gracious and happy portrait subject brought to me! It's always a pleasure to be able to chat with one's portrait subjects, which enables one to bring more of their personality into the work. I also want to take a moment to thank those sitters as I was so very impressed with their ability to sit still for 30 + minutes, even the younger ones!
