My friend Franko
 

This is my friend Franko, he is also a painter.
He ask me to paint his portrait for his mother back in Spain.
I'm posting this painting in hopes of geting a critique.
Please give the good and bad . Thanks to all.

This is a very interesting dramatic piece!

I'd like to see some softer edges in his face. It looks a bit too smooth - like the skin is more shiny and like plastic.

I am sure his mother will be thrilled!

Thanks
 

Thank you kim so much for say that you think it looks a little plastic.
Because I always thought it did also . So now i know.

Thanks SO MUCH,
Rick
