Ave, Caesar, morituri te salutant! Ave, Carla, this scenario I think is great, I would call that history reorganization and time travel, because your art is all possible! Well done, voted.
Carla Carson replied:
Thank You very much Florin! This is Alessandro Della Pietra (see picture above) he was kind enough to let me use his face for a practice portrait. He was a good sport about it too.... lol! I thank you again for the wonderful comment!!! THANK YOU!!! :D

Carla Carson replied:
It's funny, not funny ha ha, but alot of people keep saying he looks like Jesus! lol! Well.... I unfortunately had to go home for a funeral :( I was asked by a family member to do a picture of Jesus for her, & the church that the service was in wants me to do a picture of Christ as well. Along with other religious icons. My friend wants to buy one of Alessandros pictures. So...... I wonder if he would do a trade? I get my friend to make a purchase from him, & he gives me some shots of his face that I need to work from. All I can do is ask..... he was a good sport for this one :D Alessandro.... :)

Alessandro Della Pietra
Thanks so much to you again Carla, I enjoy a lot with these things, and when someone calls me to be in complicity, the fun increases :) you really made a nice picture. About the thorns, I hope they will not be too sharp ;-)) Ciao, and thank you again!
Carla Carson replied:
Alessandro, I truely enjoyed this. I knew right away when I saw your profile & "that look" I had to draw you. I'm so happy & excited that you like it. If I ever made you a Jesus, I promise to place the crown ever so gently. ha ha! I will let you know when my friend is flying to Rome (the pilot) if you are interested in having a large copy of this. He is a really great guy & easy going & would give it to you. It is totally up to you. Or I can email you the image for you to print out. Whatever you want, its up to you. It was a great practice piece, that I really enjoyed doing. CC :)
Judy Via-Wolff
Excellent! I knew right away that the model is Alessandro! Great work in charcoles,not seen very often anymore! Your work is beautiful! I think personally speaking thaI I would have Alessandro as a model for the face of Jesus! Glad to view your gallery Carla! voted and fv'ed!
Carla Carson replied:
Judy, again I thank you! It's funny, & your comment made me laugh, because when I finished his face, & I put the crown of gold leaves on his head, I looked at it & said to myself, "man, if I exchanged the leaves with thorns, he would make the perfect Jesus!!" LOL! He looks like the pictures of him! lol! Anyhoo, thank you so much Judy! Carla :)
Alessandro Della Pietra
I can not say anything about the subject, I would be too biased ;) you've made another magic, my compliments, I have never played an emperor, and moreover the greatest ;) you're the greatest, bravissima! :)
Carla Carson replied:
Thank You Alessandro for letting me use your portrait. It was fun & I'm so glad you approved of it & liked it! I think it came out beautifully! It was featured in my Pastels Group! Again, Thank you so much for being a good sport! Ciao, Carla :)
Clotilde Espinosa
I have seen his wow work ....'-))
Carla Carson replied:
I'm starting to add other elements to my portraits now. Instead of just a plain old portrait. I'm working on mine now, it should be pretty funny! Thank You Clotilde! CC :)
