I really liked this entry into Mauricio’s book, until I added the tints. I have turned a handsome and lively guy into a strung out character.
These portraits were done for moly_x_portrait8, mxportraits8.blogspot.com/. Please check out http://www.flickr.com/groups/moly_x/ , moly_x: an international moleskine sketchbook exchange.
Thanks.

Such nice liquidity to this. The wind-blown hair also adds a nice airiness. It’s interesting how you phrased this as a “guy” when he is handsome, and a “character” when he becomes strung out. It’s a wonderful moly_x portrait, Marty!

Susan, thank you so much for your generous comments.
JRT, thanks.
Ziza, I measured my head to his head, and it still looks giant next to his. I wish I was as good looking as Mauricio.
