   @Nick Vitelli Brilliant, as usual.

   P.S: Still no clue what your process is like though. :-)

   There would be a lot i could say. . . . I work off of a picture on my computer and i use lots of very light layers of color (prismacolor, colored pencils) Keep the pencils very sharp when approaching an edge. Also the more time one spends looking at a photograph, the more changes in light or color they would see. I could give you more if you have any questions, or feel free to contact me directly through email. nlvitelli@gmail.com

   I have to ask Nick, do you start a portrait by drawing simple forms, proportions and construction, adding detail later, or do you just start with details and guess proportions by freehand?

   I have to admit that i do use what i call, a primitive grid. So the grid helps the general proportions. (at least i did at the time i made this piece) thanks for your interest tho
