A fabulous portrait Denise of a very congenial looking man. It is lovely to have this memory of him looking so happy. The detail on those jeans is spectacular Denise.

This is an oil painting I have just completed for my sister and husband. It is my sister's brother-in-law. I knew him most of my life. He sadly passed 5 years ago unexpectedly.
