Drawing - Watercolour Pencil Dry
Description
This is the original version before I added texture and vignerette A portrait I did of Paul Newman when he was 60 years I used watercolour pencils dry without using a water wash after to blend, Paul had the most famous blue eyes of all Hollywood stars and he made numerous successful films, here you could say he is like Lew Harper, the eponymous detective he played so well. I did this sketch to commemorate his 60th birthday in Sept 1985 and I did this as a colour pencil drawing over a pencil sketch. Paul was a one in a million: an actor, director, racing driver, entrepreneur, philanthropist for numerous charities including the co founder of the safe water network and serious Fun children's network a camp for seriously ill children, he also played the original Rocky Graziano in place of James Dean and he had his own food industry of which he donated profits to various charities, he is loved much and missed a lot.
