Tommy / Kansas Children Pencil Portrait

Tommy

This pencil portrait was drawn in 2001.

I like this drawing, but it is not one of my best. Thought I would share some drawings from my past.

I am currently contemplating drawing a portrait of Judy Garland. The new release of "Wizard of Oz" is hitting the shelves soon, and I have always been a fan of her movies. One of my favorites is "Meet Me in St. Louis" If you have not see that old musical, you should. I am such a romantic some times.

I also have in the works a pencil portrait of my Grandmother, again. This time she and 2 other friends are acting goofy for the camera. They are wearing there 20's style dresses and smiling with silly grins.

I am looking for other candid old photos to draw. If anyone else out there has a photo from the past, I would love to draw it. I have not come up with a fee for old photo's yet, but for now just doing it for my own library and to share with everyone.
