Hi,
after working from life all spring and summer, I thought that I could push this painting a little further. I didn't really like some of the skin tone and some other details. So I reworked it, and then it was selected as a finalist of the Portrait Society of Canada !

So for the first time of my life, I had a real contact with portrait artists, and it was very nice to see that they are not virtual !!! I saw my first life demonstrations, and it was completely fascinating. I'm very impatient to go back to work...

So, here is the update photo of my self-portrait, and this is it, framed, at the gala.
