Gary's a great teacher. One of the best I've had at Otis. As far as the harsh lines? You create a darker and darker line quality as you advance through the portrait. When you're done, those previously harsh lines blend in and look like - well, like shadowing. His work always has a lot of dimension to it, precisely because he spends so much time on the inside of the drawing, rather than sketching an outline.
