This is another of my former students, that were so kind to pose for me so I could learn to do portraits. Christian is a confident fellow, and always full of energy. He was a great model for me to do. I used my wacom tablet (hooks to computer) and Painter Classic software to do this portrait. I started with a blank screen/canvas. I used layers of airbruash, water brush tools, and some pastels to get this llook. A lot of blending tosoften the brush storkes to get a more natural look, a smoother surface.
