Welcome Peter!
That's a nice reflective moment you inspirationally captured. Sometimes as hard as we force an idea for a composition, it just comes naturally on its own, as it did for you, in an easy, unassuming way. I like it when these things just happen!
I love the mighty Victrola. It sets the mood tone and aura as much as anything else (maybe to me because I am so fond of the 1914 table-top variety I have). That resonates for me, literally. I bet you have needles!
Your whole painting is lovely; sorry about my digression!
I hope you enjoy this Forum and introduce more of your portraits and paintings.
Garth
