Graphite/charcoal

Nephew


16x20 original

I normally don't do two portraits the same. But I had finished two cute portraits of brothers with bandanas and hats and later needed Christmas gifts of my nephews that live in Texas on a ranch. I took photos I already had of my newphews and added the elements of the hat and kercheif from the photos of the other boys and they looked perfect for their Texas home.
