This 20" x 16" oil was done from a composite of several photos in which the young man's head was no bigger than 1/2". I usually won't work from poor photos but the client is the manager of my favorite local watering hole and he wanted to surprise his wife.

Very nice work Jim! I like this neutral palette you are using. Very comforting feeling it exudes.

Dear Jim.
Despite the fact that you didn't take the source photo, I know that you wouldn't have started with wretched reference.
It is so enjoyable to see your work again - your style has a signature as solid as DNA.

Very nice Jim, very lifelike. And yes, it's good to see your work again. I'm curious as to what few colors are on your palette?
