Tio Jose

by Yun B

Portrait of an elderly gentleman with breadfast.

*Pastels on blue paper (58cm x 48.4cm)

Hello. Glad to find this web. Thank you for sharing.

I was inspired by uncle Jose having a breakfast.
He is 83 years old, living in Northern Spain.
He is a wonderful model.

I used a blue paper, hard and soft pastels.

Editors note:

Yun, this is a wonderful portrait. The details you have achieved with pastels are amazing. You have truly captured the soul of this elderly man Jose.

I changed your website to a clickable item for folks to get there easily.

Best wishes,

Amazing work, Yun

Yum, this is wonderful! And I clicked on your site. Your work is beautiful and classical - such attention to deatils. But the colored pencil picture of the cat -- I thought it was a photo. It is exquisite! I hope Delmus takes a look at your work. I can only aspire and admire -- I have no such talent as this!!
