GERGE! #2

Well. It seems I'm on a bit of a roll creating new work these days! This picture came about as I have recently decided I'm going to collect frames that were built by my ancestors! Here lies an illustration of my late Grandfather(Gerge) for lack of ability to pronounce George at a young age, we cut the "o". I had a frame of his which I had drawn a color pencil portrait of him for. It hung on the wall for years until recently as I decide I was going to collect these frames I realized I needed some quality art inside them. So here lies my revised drawing of Gerge, 2nd attempt at the same portrait, this one is post Cartooning school as opposed to the last!  I enjoyed making it, and I'm happy with how it came out! The two most important things. Thanks for reading. Have you ever drawn a picture of your grand parents or someone you love?

you captured a lot of personality here. Great project, and I love that story twist about leaving out the o.
