Truly amazing piece of art that no doubt was helped by the fantastic model you had for it. Hope you find the time for more of these pieces!!!

Since I'm not a premium member, I can't give an official critique. BUT, I can leave a really big comment. First off, the balance between the light and dark is superb, very striking. I can also say this for the weight that his hands vs. his body carry within the foreground and background. These two things give this drawing very good composition, I don't know if you forced your father to pose this way, but it creates an image that is very interesting and engages the eye. Your attention to detail is photo-real. I can interpret the different textures of his skin, shirts, hair, and the wood bead bracelet with ease...I'm not confused about what is what in the drawing. Before I say more, I must say that I really had to nit pick and I only found one thing that may need some attention. Ok, when I first look at the piece, my eye is lead to HIS left hand. It is my understanding that the bone in his hand that is behind his pinky finger is raised and is casting shadow over the center of his hand, which consists of the raised bone behind his ring finger as well as a vein. This small part of the drawing seems SLIGHTLY off and almost looks like he has a strange growth. My only suggestion on how to fix this would be to reduce the amount of contrast by giving this part more value..so it does not appear as though it is raised abnormally. All in all, this is a great demonstration of talent. Excellent work!
