Portrait with Bandage and Hands

This watercolor and sketch is the companion piece to my other post today (Bandaged Mike), the subject of which is also my brother Mike*. I photographed him after another resident hurt him.

The hand  sketches were copied from photos I took of my brother. The delicateness of his hands has always impressed me.
