Thank you so much for posting this Regis. Thats a wonderful portrait. I have a lot of respect for your talent. I went to the Rocky Mt. School of art, which was a lesser known school in Denver. We had life drawing sessions almost daily. I did struggle with it, but eventually got a feel for it. Many years later I joined a portrait group and went through much struggling, having never really just drawn a large face. Most of the artists in the group were painters but I stuck to graphite or charcoal. Always struggling with proportions.
