Willie Nelson

This is a pencil portrait of Willie Nelson. This is one of my newest drawings. It was finished during the last quarter of 2008. Every other drawing I have posted is from 2007 with exception of the Monica Bellucci drawing. Hopefully there is some improvement showing. This is one of few drawings that I have done that I am really happy with. I hope you enjoy my work and thank you for any comments!

Do you mind e-mailing me some of the extra talent you have laying around. he,he,he!! I wish I was half as talented as you. These are amazing.

Artist Reply: :D LOL.... Thanks!! I'm sure you can do the same type of work with some extra time, practice and a complete lack of a social life while working on a drawing!! That's all it took for me :P
