    1. I was thinking he looked like the captain in Moby Dick, how I imagine he might look.

  2. Wow...what an improvement to see him close-up!
    There is so much personality in this face, and the warm, multi-coloured background adds a further dimension of interest.
    I so love this picture!:)

    1. I think it’s the smaller canvas, and more vibrant color that makes the difference. The portraits in both the watercolor and the acrylic are about the same size. The watercolor from last week was on a larger sheet of paper, making the head smaller when placed in the same frame limits.
      Thank you
