Egg tempera for Andrea's pocket

Biker Buddy
homemade
egg tempera on "artboard" (cardboard)
I don't know how well this will travel, but I'll try it.  I made the paint from French earth pigments and egg-yolk.  My daughter brought the pigments home from France.  Keith was talking to a friend and not sitting still.  I did not make a sketch first, but just painted right on the artboard with the paints.
