Henry's World Charcoal on paper 29.5" x 22" 2003 Artist Private Collection

Henry's World was completed during my final semester at Sonoma State University. The thing about working your way through a bachelor degree program is that it forces one to not only try new things, but to also become accomplished enough to actually do well in all these required classes. When it came to advanced Life Drawing, pretty much all of the semester I was sweating bullets and kept at it until finally Henry took this pose and I managed to get "it" right. Class was ever so much more enjoyable after this one moment of triumph.
