        A response to the All Media Weekly Drawing Event.

        This is oil on board, around 12 x 14 inches. The palette is blue black, van Dyck brown, Naples yellow and viridian but it is effectively a monochrome.

        Nicely done, Harry!
        This looks like the same man that David Kassan drew?

            Very powerful and emotional piece! Beautiful use of light and shadow. Stunning details.

                Thanks for the positive comments Ricky and Bethany.

                The reference is simply given as a pexel’s free photos image. I have to admit I wasn’t familiar with David Kassan. I googled him but didn’t see this ref among his paintings. Pretty impressive though!

                        Ricky was right this is a powerful piece.

                            Agree with all. Love the expressive brushstrokes.

                                        Nice work Harry, I like the sculptural feel to the paint.

                                                    Thanks for your positive comments, people. It lets me know I’m on the right track.
                                                    Bethany thanks for the link. That’s an impressive drawing Mr. Kassan is working on, like his other portraits. Is it the same subject? Certainly looks rather like him though with different hair styling. As I say, the WDE ref is not very informative.
