I like this portrait of my husband. I captured his pensive look and quiet mood, perhaps because I was able to work live for the first 15 minutes or so. I drew the big shapes quickly with red pastel chalk and almost as quickly painted the flesh tones. After he got up, I worked for several hours more to develop the variations in his skin color and clothing.

So nice! You captured “thinking”. A very nice portrait!
