We sat together and drank Café de Colombia and discussed how skill and realism is under appreciated. Picasso says to me, "draw from within, draw from your raw passion and emotion. Though we can create the most realistic works of art imaginable, they are not as loved as our whimsical abstracts. Draw from feeling, not from sight."

I stepped outside my normal style of photo-realism and created this inspired work of art you see here.
Measures 11" x 8.5"     Drawn using ink and charcoal.

Enjoy!
