Clay on Regis and Kelly
He was funny. He was smart. He looked really good. I enjoyed watching it immensely and may I say a quick "Go Emmit!!". This was was done with the oils brushes.

GMA Clay
I think this is number six in the series of portraits. The funny thing is that doing these portraits is so relaxing that it even inspired me to go back to my bridge series. This one was a screencap from GMA. I am noticing that the hair is so different in each portrait. Cool.

David Foster Gala Clay
I drew this from a picture taken by Galrow at the David Foster Gala. I loved the look of it. I created this one with hard charcoal pencils over soft charcoal. These drawings of Clay are part of my portfolio for my Painter class. I sure am enjoying them. Thank you for all the wonderful and encouraging words.
