I’m excited to announce that my drawing, Slam Dunk, was accepted into a juried art show here in Colorado. Slam Dunk will be on display at the 51st Annual Own an Original Art Exhibition at the Littleton History Museum until January 8, 2017.

The reference photo was taken by photographer Jamie Mink. Jamie took this photograph while on a humanitarian trip to Haiti. It was taken 6000 feet up in the Seguin plateau.

As I drew this portrait, I was captivated by the little girl’s eyes. Her eyes definitely tell a story, I only wish I knew what it was.  This portrait was completed in colored pencil (Polychromos) with some Pan Pastels in the background. Finished drawing is 9×12.

You can purchase prints of my original drawing here.
