This is because you, yourself, have feelings of insecurity."<br />Linus: "No. I did that because I, myself, can't draw hands!"<br />James Gurneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870848001990898499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-60751057585151036282019-07-15T17:26:14.255-04:002019-07-15T17:26:14.255-04:00What a dynamic portraiyal of animals!

I have told myself they are just too hard and I finally realized that was only an excuse. During the last seven months I have done a portrait everyday, to get better and overcome my fears. I look at the face of the driver in this scene. It is very believable ,but really only the suggestion of features, amazing. Sometimes I think I am trying to hard.Bevanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12880159505047529060noreply@blogger.com
