Description

*Still round the corner there may wait, A new road or a secret gate.* J. R. R. Tolkien ----------------- Pencil 2B and 4B, no postwork. ----------------- This is the portrait of dear Philipp, PSNaddw here, an artist of extremely refined visual language, that I wish every single one here would know more (his thumbnails, although fascinating, aren't really indicative of his awesome and multiple talent), and a guy whom I've learnt to admire and feel a deep affection for, through an intensive and always pleasant exchange of mails. For more than one year by now I loved to talk with him so, always impressed by his sensitivity and smartness, so when I asked himn to allow me to portray him as gift, I had no idea of the way he was looking like. I can just tell I wrote him back this, as he sent me his picture "You never told me you were among the most handsome men ever????" and he really is. The fact he never even hinted at it is just a further sign of his grace inside, and lack of vanity, that I totally approve. I have to say he's way more beautiful that I portraited here... but what I would really like you all to reckon, is the awesome person and artist this charming face hides behind. Enjoy my dear... Germany is indeed a place full of talent :) I had a GORGEOUS time in Rome and soon I'll show you pics of this (also and especially in the Photography Forum): I ask you some patience cos it will take me quite a time to cope with all your posts I have missed these days... but you know I never let things undone. Thank you all for having appreciated my efforts these days :) and... well.. everyone come here in Italy!!!!!! Hugs :)

Wonderful Meli! Your sketching is, as always, flawless and his eyes tell the truth of who he is as a man and as an artist. I love the work you did on his hair and your shadowing provides a very real depth to the sketch. He would have to be a most wonderful man and friend for you to convey the love you have for him and how much you cherish your friendship. It is always a wonderful thing to see and read about the people that you sketch. I know that I have been drawn closer to them because of your portraits...Cheryl

Wonderful portrait. He's really handsome, and I like a lot the way you depicted him: light, stroked, almost caressed. Lovely.

You make it look so easy-just a mark here, a mark there--and a real, three-dimensional person appears! Excellent, excellent work!

Impressive! A very good portrait of indeed a very handsome guy! In his eyes I see some resemblance with the Baldwin-brothers, if you know what I mean. A real piece of art, Meli! Hugz

You've made a wonderful portrait. PSNaddw can be very happy to have such a talented friend. The shading on the face is so wonderfully done. Did you use ink to get the darker parts?
