BRIAN
Haven't done a portrait in some time so thought I'd do one tonight. This is Brian Simons, my oldest grandson 3.5yrs old. 16x20" oil/canvas. Comments welcome. Brian
Thanks Asma and Elliot. I took another photo of the painting outdoors in daylight. The colors came through more accurate to the painting as did the values. I loved the warmth of the image and took the reference photo at the dinner table last night...just had to paint it. Thanks for your comments. Brian
Love the brush work on the shirt, and the over all greens of the painting.
ReplyDeleteAnother wow! Really fantastic. I love everything about it. Wish I could've watched you paint it.
