Believe me D, you are very good and I would like to learn more from you, like your medium and selection of brushes for those all too convenient beautiful brush strokes. I will watch for sure!......L

Gorgeous work! Checking on the likeness, his face in the painting is a bit narrower, especially on to the right of the features, than in the reference photo. But otherwise a truly wonderful painting with beautiful fresh brushwork and color!

Hi, Michele.
I deliberately accentuated the lines of his head (especially his left outline), and that might have contributed to the imbalance you pointed out.
I am going to try a couple of (hopefully) delicate remedies and see if it will take that away. Thanks!

Alive!
Hi Deladier,
Beautiful work! My comment is that the subject looks more alive in your painting than he does in 'real life' (the photo).
