Thanks so much,
good advice.
I should've mentioned this is a commission, they aren't my parents.
It is 2 different photos and the dad is only a 35 MM snapshot. The mom is larger but very washed out and sepia toned. They are from El Salvadore.
He looks even more stern than I painted him. The mother is almost sad so it's quite a challenge. I guess it won't look like your standard smiling snapshot though.
I'll post as I go, any other ideas are appreciated.
Brenda
