Let me see. The homework for yesterday's memoir class was to pick one word that describes me best. Well that is not as easy as you might think since there are so many adjectives, pronouns and verbs from which I can choose.
Sometimes I think of myself as Hero, as in my previous posting:
YOU CAN CALL ME...
Other times it is Survivor, having endured some of the great traumas of life.
Yesterday it was Grandpa, while I listened to my daughter brag about her kids.
Today though, I will choose two words, Renaissance Man. I write, paint, draw, sculpt, cook, do the laundry and dishes. I serve my wife and love my family and friends. I love to love.
Put away your pencils. This is not for critique; it is what I am today.
Tomorrow I will be, Humble.

You might try Heretic seeing as how the one word you choose is Renaissance Man.
I do agree, all characters/people are complex and when we sketch even fiction, we need keep this in mind.
