Mike




This is Mike, twin brother of Will, who I posted a while back. Canvas sizes are the same, and heads are roughly equivalent in size.

Between the two paintings, I favor this one slightly.

Tom, it's beautiful! His parents were wise to choose you as the artist. Was it their idea to commission separate portraits of the twin boys? You've handled the issue of individuality and compatibility beautifully. His face has so much appeal. You have caught the nuances in the way he holds the ball and crosses his feet. The colors are so naturalistic--an impressive handling of sun and shadow. This will make a perfect companion for his brother's portrait.

Could you possibly post some details (face, hands and feet)?
