This pencil rendering portrays a color sergeant from New York’s 69th Regiment, commonly known as the Irish Brigade. Detailed shading defines his uniform, medals, flag, and steady expression, giving the portrait a strong sense of historical presence. Inspired by a painting by Don Troiani, the piece offers a refined study of military tradition and Irish-American heritage. Its monochromatic design would bring quiet character to an office, study, or history-inspired space.

I create detailed graphite portraits that explore character, memory, and quiet emotion. From beloved faces to historical figures and sci-fi icons, I use careful shading and linework to bring each subject to life.
