Description
Every wrinkle...every line tells
a story in this man's life. The
original referenced photo was part
of The Edward Curtis Collection
1905...now a Library of Congress
public domain image.
The sketch was accomplished with
H, HB and 2B pencils. The frame,
matting, eye, earing, rose, circular
bow and soft focus were all done
through PSP8.
I hope and pray that everyone has
a happy holiday. Remember to
cherish those around you and to
take the time to renew fellowship
with your family and friends.
For me and my house...we give all
praise and honor to God, to His blessed
Son, Jesus Christ and to His wonderful
Spirit who lives in us...and I thank
Him everyday that you have come into
my life. You honor me with your
friendship and caring...Cheryl

An excellent post- Advent image befitting the coming of the Maggi. The special adornments separate this character from simple people. Your image has given him another purpose once more. Merry Christmas
