1. Nice.

You've handled the very difficult salt-and-pepper passages in the hair and beard very well. :thumbsup: (Too often, hair in paintings/drawings looks like a helmet, with no texture or depth.) The skin tones are lovely, as well.

:yourock:

2. Hi Heidi!

Thanks for the comments! Still have lots of work to do on it, but I like the progress so far!

3. He looks like he was a friendly fellow with a good sense of humor

If that is so then you have cpatured his true spirit and essences and that is quite the accomplishment. :toast:

4. Good Morning!

He was a big man: loud and generous. Everyone liked him, some even loved him. He worked as a lineman and trained many a young person to do this very demanding job. Cancer took him from us last year. He will be missed.
