I've been working on a portrait of Abe Lincoln. I had no particular plan for this other than practice; he has a very interesting face. I've found that as I draw someone, I feel compelled to know more about them. How did that little line appear? What were they so worried/happy about? What is the source of that tiny scar?
There's a lot more to Abe Lincoln than is in the body of common knowledge. If you get the chance, read up on him as we round the bend toward President's Day.
