Portraits of Mount Airy

I set aside the wood, and the knives, chisels & mallets for the Spring/Summer of 2022 so I'd have time for graphite on paper drawings, especially portraits. After completing a few imaginative drawings, and then of royalty free and subscription models, I began asking for local volunteers, people who lived, or those who worked or owned businesses, in our town. Nearly everyone I've asked has said yes.

Note: Portraits of Mt Airy Faces are all done in graphite on 14" x 17" Bristol Vellum paper.
