Title: Coon Lake
Purpose: Portraiture Study
Size: 15"H x 12"W
Medium: Prismacolor Colored Pencil on Stonehenge Paper
Notes: This portrait-study was accomplished using my paternal Grandfather as the main subject - a man I greatly admire who is long ago deceased.
The context of this portrait represents a number of my passions: lake living and being near the water, fishing, and boats to name a few.
I acquired the old outboard motor when I was about twelve years old and this experience contributed to my lifelong interest in all things mechanical. Sometimes I kept that outboard running and sometimes it ran me; I really miss it.
