Thank you, all,

Thor is the son of my daughter , Janni, whom I painted with her first child, Freja, as my first "Work in Progress". Time fly.

The paint is applied very thinly and the background is only a wash to tint the canvas.
I wanted to try out some new brushes that I got from the States ( thank you for the help with that, Alex ) The canvas is smooth because I filled the texture with White paint and let it dry well beforehand, it was almost like a panel regarding the texture, very nice.

The texture in the T-shirt is due to the painting knife, in the light.

His pose was straight forward on my reference and I changed it to a slightly turning position to get a little movement, he's always moving.

I think that I will attempt a figurative with them soon.
