This week I got to tackle drawing a profile pic for facebook. No, not for me, for a friend.
If you're in the Kidlit world you may guess who it is.
Here's the first one.
It was too realistic and therefore wouldn't look well on the small profile on Facebook.
So I tried another technique, much freer with ink dipping pen.
I gave the last image grayscale washes in photoshop.
If you hadn't guessed the subject is Harold Underdown. You can see which image he finally used on his Facebook page at this link .... https://www.facebook.com/harold.underdown
Toodles!

Excellent!
Thanks Tim!
Good one.
Hi Hazel.
I recognized Harold. Great guy. He was a delightful presenter at one of our Children's Writers Conferences in Watertown some years ago. All of us learned important things from him and the learning goes on as we keep up through THE PURPLE CRAYON.
Hi Hope .. thanks for your comment. I met Harold last year on the Nevada Mentor Program and he has been a great source of knowledge and inspiration to me. There are some wonderful people int he kidlit world!
Best
Hazel
