The Workman

14 Jan

The WorkmanI’m still feeling puny from the horrible virus but I made myself go into the art room and paint the last few days. Doing nothing is drivng me crazy, even though that’s all I feel like doing. Anyway, I finished this little portrait from a photo posted for the last week’s WDE at Wet Canvas.   I loved the purple/pink shadows on his face and that bright pink hat. I had a devil of a time getting the skintones like I wanted them! I’m happy with the results, though. 6×6, Oil on museum quality gessoboard panel. He’s available at http://www.dailypaintworks.com/fineart/melisa-mccurley/the-workman/113662
