Ashok on Sunday Night (After Surgery #1)
Omaha, NE ~ 2018
Charcoal and conte on Toned paper
25" x 19"
This portrait was done from life at my Sunday night portrait session. Several friends and I get together on Sunday nights to draw and paint portraits from life. Ashok posed for us and many of us got portraits that turned out well.

He did not get sleepy this time because all of us were chatting while drawing. He prefers laughter and talking over silence when modeling.
