practice portrait

My first full-on painting. It's a reproduction of a painting by Malcolm Liepke.

A painting in progress. It still needs a lot of work.

Another sketch, testing out different brushes and styles.

Another small, very quick study in Corel Painter. I love this program - it really does look like a charcoal drawing.

Finally, I've begun to add more artwork. I just bought Corel Painter X, and this is one of my first studies. The image is originally by Graham Franciose.
