Christopher was it, but I have to admit a little cheating with Dean.

Excellent portrait of the late Christopher Reeve. Your technique is outstanding. If you're not doing this professionally, then you should be.

Thank you very much. In the 70's and 80's I sold pieces at Star Trek/Star Wars conventions. I am just now trying to get back into drawing and selling, trying to find my audience, and testing out Ebay. But sadly, I am not professional. (Thank you for thinking that I was!)

You'll find an audience, make no mistake. With your talent, it's bound to happen. At the very least, you'll have an audience at Deviantart. I've been drawing for years but I've never been able to get the knack for doing real life portraits, so in a way I'm a bit envious. Still, the folks on this site like my cartoon ladies, and that's good enough for me. We should strive to do the best at what we're good at. Take care.

Brilliant... just brilliant.
Christopher Reeve made Superman for me and you have absolutely nailed his likeness.

Thank you so much. I love Lois and Clarke but Christopher was IT for me too.

My pleasure.
I used to religously watch Lois & Clark as well. I grew up with Christopher being Superman though so it's probably stuck with me.
