I am the guy in the picture. I love the drawing but I also find it fascinating to watch it being created, which adds value from my perspective.

@andrewhennigan Thanks for the comment, Andrew! And I am glad you like the portrait.

do you use any charcoal or just sketching out the picture then using a pen to finish the portrait?

[igor4art]

@FunnyAnimatedNewb No, I don't use it. I just sketch it out with a pencil and then use a gel pen and a Pentel brush pen in the end.
