Portrait of Us (As of Mar. 22, 2017)


This is the project I having been working on, almost finished in this photo taken two days ago. This is a painting of a couple on vacation in Santorini, Greece. My reference was a vacation photo that showed them riding a motorbike and wearing sunglasses and helmets. On March 22, I concentrated on "finishing" the painting, by which I mean I tried to make sure no raw canvas was showing through and that lines were smooth and as clean as I could get them.  Most of the work was on the background on the right and on the man's shirt.  But I also made a lot of very tiny changes on the faces and elsewhere, corrected little mistakes as I went along.  Almost there. . . .
