Lovely! I like the slightly unfinished look,like life. Great work!

Hi size and thankyou very much. Yes there aren't many straight lines in nature.

Super portrait of this distinguished old soldier.

Thankyou Thea he was fun to paint. I tried to keep it loose but at the same time accurate.

It certainly does! Splendid portrait study, Dennis. I love the broad patches of tones and hues that work so well together to define the planes of his face.
