I painted for once! Thank you @1kwordsartandphoto.bsky.social for the wonderful inspiration! I’ve wanted to start painting, and have had a few false starts this year. Finally overcame my hesitation and self judgement and just did it.

8 x 13 in. Graphite & Charcoal on bristol board. Depicted is one of my former students, Greg, from his law enforcement days. Hopefully I captured some the stillness and focus from the original reference. TBH I hesitate drawing military subjects due to current politics; but it’s part of who I am.
