Dewi,
Great work with acrylic on paper...still can't do that. If it's not on canvas I'm done!
Love the rich colors and the tilt of his head with the look on his face is complete focus!

. I love how the background suggests the orange glow of the hot smelting fire.. You can't see it but you know its hot. Excellent detail, color. Dewi. This is stellar!

Wonderful acrylic painting Dewi - love all the detail in his clothes and the rich, dark background just makes him pop! This almost looks like an old world oil painting.
