I do! Actually, I really like your portraits of old time movie stars and I encourage you to post more. My favourites are silent flick actors, as you can guess from my nickname. Anything about Valentino would be great... (hint! hint!)
And much thanks for welcoming me!

Thank you! I'm afraid I don't post so many graphite portraits these days - simply because I'm a full-time illustrator and don't get much time to work on portraits unless they are commissions. A few still trickle through though, usually ones I've been commissioned for, or that I've done as live demonstrations. I'm not as familiar with silent films as I am always doing something (usually drawing, sometimes needle felting) while watching movies, and can't deal with needing to read the cue cards to know what's going on - but the stars of that era certainly have fabulous style! I do have a partially finished Clara Bow that I was doing for a demonstration, I need to find some time to finish her off (oh, for time!)
