Charcoal sketch2 of Abraham Lincoln with nose job  by Gloria Poole. I had a great time trying to do-over his nose! When I worked in the operating room as either First Assistant or Circulator, I also helped with plastic surgery cases.  Of course, that means lots of noses surgically broken by surgeon then re-shaped to be more likeable to the patient. I was thinking about that when I started drawing the face of President Abraham Lincoln and I was thinking 'if he lived today, he might do-over his nose" and then it became impossible it seemed to just draw it as it appeared on copper pennies.  Of course, I  didn't make too much of effort to draw it precisely as it is  [on pennies] / was  [in his lifetime]  but was mostly experimenting with charcoals which I very rarely draw/ create with.  This is the second time I tried to draw Abraham Lincoln, one of the greatest Presidents the U S ever had.  I posted the first attempt to draw Lincoln  that I created few months ago to my blog https://gloriapoole.blogspot.com I think but you have to scroll the archives to find it.

For the record: I, Gloria Poole, am the same woman that began this blog years ago with a pseudonym of sorts that combines my born with first name of Gloria and numbers that have significance to me, when I was in a terrible second marriage and living in Colorado, and the man who was my then-husband was very violent to me, tried to prevent me talking to anyone or going anywhere without him, tried to make me be "less Christian", tried several times  to kill me and in the process crippled me.  I began this blog and this account in those times with that sort of pseudonym [gloria0817]  to have a way to write on the web without invoking his wrath against me.  I am divorced from him [DBP] since Oct 2007 and that is recorded in Arapahoe County Colorado and the final decree of divorce from male DBP was signed by District Court Judge in Arapahoe County Colorado, and I removed the Pappas name which was his surname from my name and resumed my full, born with, maiden name including my surname of Poole at the same time.

Main Street Small town sketch by Gloria Poole of Missouri

"Main Street, Small town" sketch by Gloria Poole of and in Missouri

 I, Gloria Poole, drew, painted, signed, photographed on my portable drawing board, and uploaded this sketch today 8th August, 2014 at 11:59am.  I grew up in a small town in South Georgia and lived there til I graduated high school and then moved to Atlanta, GA [and went to nursing school one week after turning 18 --years ago] and also graduated; and graduated from University of Georgia also later].   I was tired today because my oldest daughter Jennifer and her children visited me [and my other daughter Leigh and her family] for few days and I didn't rest a day or too before drawing. I didn't get the awning correct, or the windows in store front either, on this sketch. I tried re-drawing it several times  but think it's shadow is not sufficient to define it. I was too tired to care quite frankly. It's a do-over for certain.

It is necessary to write this intermttently because many people have tried to steal my name and identity by stealing photos of art I created and or genre photographs  I photogrphed and the bad people stole emails and domains that belonged to me. I divorced a second time in Arapahoe County Colorado from male [initials DBP] in Oct 2007 after four horrible years of marriage to him, and many injuries to me caused by him. At the time of final decree of divorce, I removed the Pappas name from my name forevermore, and resumed my full maiden name including my surname I was born with of Poole, by order of District Court Judge who signed final decree of divorce.
