Rendering of the hair is excellent and the rasta strands are a nice touch as well. Like the fact you played around with the colors of his garb but kept them in slight contrast with the background colors. Can see influence in these samples of Parrish, St. John and Whrightson, still, you have your own style here, you are the real deal! Congrats and I look forward to the next installment! |

Thank you, Nathan - glad you liked it. You've put me in heady company indeed! I certainly do have a lot of Wrightson and Parrish in me. Less St. John as a direct influence - I think more Wyeth from that general style of bold strokes and colors. One of these days maybe I'll be half as good as any of them!

Good job with those effects, especially the clouds to the character's left..in fact, the clouds to the right, though really nice on their own, distract from the drama of the clouds on the left (for me, anyway), but a minor complaint. |

A very impressive painting Patrick. From your wonderful use of light and shadow, to the fantastic detail in his hair, and the subtle blending of colors in the robe, this is fine work. Great job. |

Thank you so much, Scott! I liked the description of this character in the book, and it was nice to bring him to life here.
