A very powerful piece. A resolved and sad soldier the true face of the war. Did you not show any face features on purpose? Very smart indeed. I can't stop staring at the face trying to find the person in it.
Kip DeVore replied:
Thank you, Elena. Yes, I'm guessing the lump of charcoal I was using probably precluded much facial detail -- it probably wasn't intentional, but just a limitation.

Thank you all. Yes, Donald, set up my chair there with drawing board, paper and chunk of charcoal. Thank you.

This is a really nice study of a Civil War Monument. I believe it was done on location. If so, please join my website: pleinairartists.ning.com. It is fairly new, since May, but already has 777 members, all artists who paint outdoors on location. It is Worldwide, for beginners to professionals, and is free to join. I thank you for all the fine complements you gave me today. Glad I was sitting down! Some days your up and other days your down. Today I am way up. thanks. Don
