Bob 12x12 oil

Okay, so I let it alone for a few hours and watched the Super Bowl with "Bob". He asked me if it was okay to say what he thinks about my interpretation of him. I said sure and he said he was thinking about it. That is the thing with portraiture, I might be delighted, but the customer will have their feelings too. How well does one know ones self? How do I know if I captured them, I mean the person, the whole and spiritual person...hummmmmmmmmmmm

It is hard to paint those that you love, but you did a really nice job with this!
