Thank you all very very much.
Linda, here are two photos from the process.
My paintings don't always look nice like Garth's while in progress...
I have just corrected a few details narrowing the shoulders and the neck (he seemed a bit older than his age, now it's better). I also softened his eyebrows and altered the mouth slightly and declared it finished!

Just found this....it's terrifically assured and sensitive simultaneously. Great color too!

Ilaria,

Just saw this for the first time this morning. Beautiful job. This portrait has a lot of presence. Like Tom mentioned, it is confident and sensitive simultaneously. And I love that you got a great photo of him at your show wearing the same clothes.

David
