My journey from a technical and strict discipline of forensic and composite art to fine art. I'm trying to unfurl my wings to fly into this new field but I'm still struggling to get out of my cocoon!

Master Artist Marcel Franquelin
This micron pen drawing with purposely left pencil sketch marks was a birthday gift for one of the most talented artists I know. Marcel has his own art school and is not only a master oil painter but a jaw dropping artist with pencil and pastel. You can see the image I based this sketch on at the bottom center of his art school website. The penguin is an inside joke obviously.

Sheila, I love this portrait of your friend. I know he must love the portrait also. Great Work! I am learning a lot about the web with this blog, I now know what a "avatar" is in cyberspace.
Wonderful portrait of your friend, Sheila! The penguin is a fun addition. Also, thank you for your compliment about my having a painting in Southwest Art - it is pretty cool!

Well done Sheila, your drawing captured how engrossed he is on his drawing even better than his photo!
