“Now what?!”

Happy apples and honey to everyone who celebrates New Year today! Interestingly enough this year Jewish New Year coincides with the “Talk like a pirate” day. So if you are a pirate of Jewish persuasion or a Jew aspiring to be a pirate here are some pointers: Shana Tova, matey!
I finished another study portrait. At least I think it is finished because at my current level of skills I am not sure what else I can do. A little over 6×6 inches in size, graphite on Bristol Smooth, it took about 25 hours. The original photo is by a French photographer Christine Lebrasseur.
Now what?!

Arrrgh, avast me hearties – Shalom! I really appreciate learning about the coincidence of “Talk Like a Pirate Day” and Hebrew New Year. Also, this is a charming study – just charming. Looks surprised! Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for stopping by! Any more delay, and I would have you walk the plank… or something… 🙂
Alex, this is a beautiful portrait. You’ve “turned ” the cheek nicely, and captured a lovely expression.
Well done!
Thank you for the kind comment, Christy! Mine is such a new blog, I get excited about every visitor and every comment. Love your dog portraits!
