(click to embiggen)Steven and I got extra creative today. The weather has gone from 80 degrees for the past week, to about 40 today and it's getting colder by the hour. It kind of forced us to stay at home and find something to do other then lounge around stuffing our faces with food that's bad for us.
Steven's been wanting to do this triptych painting (who knew?) and I've been wanting to draw our portrait for the longest time. I'm anxious to see how the painting turns out.
Our portrait is done in a slightly different drawing style then the portraits on my artist site. It might be difficult to tell from a picture. I tried to loosen up with the drawing style, but I still have trouble letting go fully. Guess I'm a little out of practice.
I was surprised at how fast I completed it. I was done in about 3 hours and that included framing. The only thing that sucks is how many wrinkles I have now! The past portrait I did, it wasn't that bad.
I need to buy some Oil of Olay Rengenerating cream.

That's why I like hanging around with you artist types....it shows me, clearly, what I don't have....artistic abilities. Looks great!
Those aren't wrinkles--they're strands of life experience that are woven through you. OK, now you tell that to me!
Did you catch Sunday Morning with Charles Osgood on CBS today? Featured were glass artists Markow and Norris, partners in art and in life who have developed a woven glass technique that is astonishing, I'm sure you know them, but just in case, here's the site address: http://wovenglass.com/
Beautiful portrait Mark. Just beautiful.
Oil of Olay, Schmoil of Olay. You don't need no stinking Regenerating cream. Besides, it's not in the budget!
Very Nice!
