Steve,

Wow, the simplicity of this portrait is so striking. Like Marina I admire how you used the value massing to frame his head and white hair. I'm also admiring the change in temperature and value of the shadows between the balustrade elements. And I love how you painted the pinstriped shirt collar--not fussy at all, and it looks so clean and refreshing to wear on a warm day.

Can you post some closeups of the hands?
