I was really busy towards the end of 2008 and then went on holiday for about three weeks. Was really awesome and just relaxed until Christmas hit and then really had no time to sit down and get some artwork done :(.<BR/><BR/>Eager to say Happy New Year Allan and I’m sure it will be a good one from what you have been posting as of late. For me, I hope to learn more then ever and enjoy my artwork to its full extent.<BR/><BR/>Here is supporting each other in 2009!<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>MattMatthew Mastersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11458098950334717758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5124724441020127571.post-7630696331332840752009-01-07T04:13:00.000-08:002009-01-07T04:13:00.000-08:00Charisse --Thanks so much for your very kind words...Charisse --<BR/><BR/>Thanks so much for your very kind words!!Allan Burchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10735197997044931862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5124724441020127571.post-52206671681995220832009-01-07T04:07:00.000-08:002009-01-07T04:07:00.000-08:00Maestro --Thanks for the kind words.I used white C...Maestro --<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the kind words.<BR/><BR/>I used white Canson Mi Teintes paper, with the dimpled, textured side up, for that portrait.<BR/><BR/><BR/>I like the texture of that paper because it adds a bit of a unique look and takes away just enough "smoothness."Allan Burchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10735197997044931862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5124724441020127571.post-82163819508370091752009-01-06T20:41:00.000-08:002009-01-06T20:41:00.000-08:00I am working on some vine charcoal portraits.

What paper and color was your portrait of the woman that you posted on April 27, 08. nice work. <BR/><BR/>I seem to have good luck with white Bienfang drawing paper that is middle weight. If the paper has too much tooth, vine charcoal does not seem to work well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5124724441020127571.post-47141775513129796632009-01-03T17:59:00.000-08:002009-01-03T17:59:00.000-08:00I have to say this is my favorite of all your pain...I have to say this is my favorite of all your paintings. :) Not because it's "better" than any others, but because Elway is my idol!
