one more small step. and another from Open Portrait session

I heard from my sponsor request yesterday. I need two to apply to the Pittsburgh Society of Illustrators. With the application finished up and off in the mail, I just wait to hear when membership review will happen. In the mean time I will continue to work on newpen and ink pieces and put a new and fresh portfolio together. Wow , after all these years I am still nervous to hear from peers.Here is my piece from Open sudio yesterday.
