He has a bit of a sun tan but for now it will have to stay that way. He has been repainted a few times and gone from pink to yellow to tanned! His jacket was bright blue and now it is a quiet grey blue. I could go on much more. Yet I am tired now and feel the freshness of the work will leave if I carry on any further. I had so much to say about the work, how I felt, what colours I used, what brushes, how much paint, what the swirls did to the final work. Yet somehow I haven't anything left to say other than something that the artist Alberto Giacometti said, ' a portrait is never finished'! I agree!
Now a quiet time to tidy and clean our home and then during that time I am hoping my muse will appear for the next portrait!!!
Happy Painting to you all!
