Hello!
This is my latest practice, it's 9x12 oil on canvas.
Reference photo is from Steve Evans. C&C are welcome!

Re: Portrait of a little boy

Thanks Crystal and Bethany,
I feel like the skin tones are a bit all over the place (I went back to work on it a few days after it was finished, but then I couldn't get the same colors back, and things got messy), but maybe not...
Anyway, practice makes perfect, thanks again!

Re: Portrait of a little boy

He looks very vibrant and alive. I wouldn't mess with the skin tones. It's very well done as it is.

Great portrait. Can't see any real issues - maybe the mid-tones are a bit indistinct, but I can't really be sure.

Good work!

HI,

I love the emotion on his face. The skin is really well done.

Regards,
