Better photos! There is a little glare but the color is much more realistic and he doesn't have red blobs on his forehead anymore. I took the earlier photos outside and they really turned out bad.
Thank you Heidi and Garth, two artists I admire greatly. Your appreciation has made my day.

Earlier, I forgot to thank Linda Brandon for her suggestions. So, thank you Linda!

Thank you Mary. 
I've been playing around with different techniques and styles now for a couple of years. My last painting "The Rose" was my first stab at a highly refined painting and I was so glad when it was done! This one is looser, with palette knife in the background and many different types of brushes to make the textures. I like this new medium very much, but it stnks so I'm on to something else. How does Maroger smell?

I have watched this one develop and was so anxious to see the final result and for good reason. It's just incredible! It's so "alive." I also love the background. Really well done from top to bottom.
