Portrait art - the Holy Father Francis


When I was a student at seminary, I used to carry a ball-point pen in my pocket and doodle in books all the time. One day, I sat in a pizzeria in a largish town called Arezzo, and copied this image of the Holy Father from a newspaper. I thought he had a nice smile.

  1. That is an excellent drawing of The Pope Fr. I’ve seen the photograph used in the newspaper you mentioned or one very similar to it and the drawing is just like it.

    1. There's a degree of realism to the drawing that I like. Like the skull-cap that's on at an angle. :)
