Time to start on something new.
This next one is really out of the realm of normal for me and also way out of my comfort zone. I just have never had the desire to paint any people/human figures. The only human face I have ever done was in my first art class about 5 yrs. ago, didn't like doing it, didn't enjoy it, so never attempted another one. Fast forward to our trip to Canada this summer where my spouses daughter asked if I could attempt a painting for her. It is to be my rendition of the painting by Heinrich Hofmann which is titled, "Christ At 33 Years". We will see, wish me luck, I am definitely going to need it.
Here is a photo of the beginning of it. Pastel on Canson pastel paper. 20 x 25".

I can already tell it's going to be outstanding!
Barb, thanks for your vote of confidence. I am SO sure it won't be outstanding, at best I am hoping for passable lol.
I have gotten his hair done now and am working on the beard lol. I am so not comfortable doing humans lol, give me animal anytime lol.
We're our own worst critics. I can barely draw stick men so I think you're very talented.
Thanks Barb.
