Portrait 12th February

Saturday's  oil portrait, approx 18 x 20

considering another medium

I'm considering using something other than colour pencil for the 10 minute live portraits. I like c/p because it's very direct, more attractive than graphite, very resilient  and does not need spraying, but it's not the easiest medium to get a satisfactory result all the time! Conte would be good but it takes at least twice as long  to work with, and needs to be fixed
