A portrait I created some years ago when I was really focused on learning more about how to create very realistic portraits. This man is a good friend of mine that I used to work closely with in one of my church assignments. I worked for a long time on trying to improve my portrait skills, and took a couple of workshops to help with this. I studied with David Gray, an excellent artist here in Washington state who is very skilled at portraits. Then later I studied with David Kassan, one of the premiere portrait artists in the United States.
