It’s father’s day, so I’ve collected some drawings and paintings of artist’s fathers. Evidently fathers often read the paper, and sit in chairs. Note: The names listed with the artworks are the artist’s names, not the father’s.
SAL Challenge
Create a portrait of your father. Feel free to draw, paint, collage, sculpt…. any material you choose. If using a photograph, alter the photograph in some way, or set up a scene or still life to represent him.
