Cole
(14"x11" wax pastel on gessoed w.c. paper)
Sometimes the universe just drops one in your lap... via Facebook.
That's how I acquired the reference photo Cole, a fellow artist, snapped of his 16 day beard growth. The elongated distortion of this selfie speaks volumes! I'd say it sums up Cole's rebel attitude regarding his beard.
(Thanks Cole for giving me permission to use your photo.)
Regarding your album... I've got you covered.
