This painting is just getting going....I was painting this individual because I really liked the tiny photograph that I found. His personality seemed to shine in this picture that was taken of him years ago. This is my Uncle Orville, my great uncle. I emailed his daughter to ask permission to paint him, and she said that I could! But, after struggling with the details of his face (could not see very well, even with the help of a magnifyng glass) I am hoping to get a larger photo. So, along with my New Orleans painting and several unfinished paintings, this is what is on my easel today. I can't wait to get to the studio and throw some paint around!
