Terri, correct on all counts except his hairline. It indeed had/has a sweep back compared to his left (our right) side. This was my first attempt at a 3/4 portrait and I struggled in many areas, especially the coat and sleeve. I like the painting for the subject and the lessons it taught me and still teaches me.
Just like my dad.
