Jimmie - good to see another (need I say it) excellent drawing from you. I think we all suffer a little withdrawal when we don't see works from you over an extended period.

Check out the background element! I'm liking this a lot! It's one thing to throw in a background "just because" - you may as well not do it in that case. Here, however, it creates a pleasing design and (even if the viewer doesn't know for sure) a personal relationship to the sitter (or artist). A good addition, in my opinion.

I'm going to put on my cheerleader outfit as well (okay, not the skirt ) and cheer for you to keep going with the color! Unlike many of my students, you obviously don't have the draftsmanship part of it to worry about. It WILL come - trust me. I think all of us here on the forum can agree on this when it comes to Jimmie Arroyo.
