    Portrait for a friend

    My friend requested a portrait with a ref she gave me.
    It was of her Dad who passed away a few years ago.
    I have done a charcoal on paper a few years ago for her
    which sits on a window now.

    Your friend should be thrilled to received this portrait. You have an intriguing style as you have shown in your WIPs
    June.

    Oh God of homeless things, look down
    And try to ease the way
    Of all the little weary paws
    That walk the world
    today.

    Thank you Limey-g.

    The photo ref that I got was not high definition so I had to surmize certain areas.
