These Drawings Started in 1972 with lessons to develop skill. First perspective, then freehand. As my skill grew the portraits took life. My career was very demanding, so drawing took a back seat and I never picked up a pencil until the Pandemic froze us all in place. No travel, few visits, my friends were far away. So, I decided to draw them, and these portraits are but a few of my friends and competitors. I included my Nieces and Nephew, then my wife to watch over us all. Surprisingly, everyone made it and I am glad I have created a gallery of smilling faces.
