Entry in Art Competition
Hello,
This is a portrait that I entered in a LDS Art Competition, the theme of which was the church past and present. I used my image source as the foundation for my painting, while using pictures of the sitter's death mask to correct his facial proportions. The dimensions are 26' x 22'. Painted on a birch panel with a Payne's gray ground, I used yellow ochre as an underpainting for the face only, and continued using variations of Payne's gray as an underpainting for the rest of the portrait.
