Tim, all I can say is WOW - nice first portrait. I can't comment too much because I can't draw a portrait worth a darn. But you came to the right place for a critique! Ms. Rose is fantastic at helping one along with a portrait. She'll be along shortly. The other drawing is really good also. I have always thought of doing a guitar but never got a good picture of one that wasn't mine. My son has always played the bass guitar - I don't know why I haven't had him take a picture for me. Duh...... Good job though.....I like it.

Thanks Joanie ...if I post the reference photo you can see where I went wrong I should have tilted his head a little more to the left and lengthened his face but ty very much I am kinda proud of it ...took me 4 hours altogether

Man, oh, man, Tim ...................that picture threw me for a loop for a minute there............it looked like your dad is sitting in front of prison bars............then I realized it was just window mullions!!! LOL I think its time to get my eyes checked. LOL Anyway, you have definitely gotten his likeness down on paper!

Tim, this portrait is wonderful. What I noticed at once was that you look alike your father! This is your first real attempt on a portrait? You have my highest compliment. Especially because I am such bad on portraits. Tim - great!

Thanks so much everyone ...LOL Joanie I should tell my Dad that he'd get a great laugh and yes Martina I have been told I look like my Dad ( a few years ago women would tell me that my Dad looked like Sean Connery ...so by deduction as I age ...and mature (HAHAHAHA) I too will look like Sean Connery LOL except that I am 5'6" ( I will be the pocket sized one Thanks Andrea and Rose I am finally feeling better they have figured out how to deal with me and soon as I have some more practice I will start posting for critique ...I have much to learn
