Caught the person well Cesare yes lovely control

Very nicer portrait Cesare, and very brave. Doing a portrait of one's family is something that requires confidence and ability. It looks like you've pulled it off with great skill.

Lovely Cesare, a wonderful portrait

A fine figure and equally fine painting Cesare, you really are the master at these.

Thanks so much Christopher, Dennis, André and David for your kind comments always appreciated.

Very handsome portrait of a very handsome young man Cesare.

Thank you all for your kind and generous comments much appreciated.

Love the technique - such soft marks and so well painted.

Another splendid portrait Cesare . I tried a different paper last week and nothing worked out everything went in the bin in frustration , I'm going to stick with Arches

Many thanks, Michael and Dermot, for your kind comments much appreciated. Hi Dermot, I tried Arches but I found this paper is hard for me. I find it gets soon dirthy with graphite.

Very good.

lovely work and fabulous colours

Many thanks Gudrun and Stephanie.

A very expressive piece, Cesare, full of live and personality. Excellent work.

Thanks so much, Seok.
