For Ron

Ron was a great character and a fantastic model. One of the best that I've had the privilege of drawing and painting. I always commended him on his extreme postures and his ability to hold them for extended periods of time. My only regret is that I never fully took advantage of his services above and beyond the classroom. Had I the money to hire him as a model for my own work, I would've. Here's to you, good sir.

He was typical of these faces and gestures that made drawing a treat.


This is one of my favorite portraits that I did while at CCS. I felt as though it actually captured the likeness of him.


This was the last portrait I did at CCS and it was of Ron. It was a good note to leave on.


Thanks Ron.
