Okay...Gut reactions please
Greetings,
I sure like having this forum for help!
I am painting this formal portrait of an 8 year old young man. It is to hang in his grandfather's house and follow the appearance and feel of another formal painting of his mother in a black evening gown set in a grand living room that hangs in that house. I'm a very INFORMAL person and this is all new to me. I like the colors, I like the feel but something feels wrong and I don't know what it is.
Please take a look at what I have created so far and if you could offer some suggestions to bring believability and life to this painting I would be SO grateful
.
Thanks!
