Charcoal portraits


 These young portrait subjects are Katie, Colin, and William. Their parents commissioned the portraits, and they were done last fall. These are "finished" portraits, unlike the many head studies on this blog, which are sketches by comparison. The blog has several other finished portraits too, and they're usually identified as portraits, not studies. You can tell the difference. I like the finished drawings, but I like the sketchy look of the quick studies, too.
