Dad

My dad is a strong proud man. This was my first portrait, it was painted on A4 canvas with oils.

Critique

It was nice trying to capture the look of my dad in a painting. There is a resemblance, but the clothing portrays more his personality than the way he normally dresses. I will definitely be painting more portraits in future but will need to study up on techniques and take some art classes before hand. The shading and colour tones are not too bad but they are a world away from what I saw in my minds eye.

Overall, my dad will get an Easter present I hope he enjoys.
