Hi everyone, I wanted to get some feedback about this portrait as an archival print. This is an early painting from my studies at the Chatov studio in Atlanta.
Thanks for any comments and have a wonderful weekend!
I like it! And I can think of one really good reason to make it a print...it's of a man. Is it my imagination or do you just not see a lot of portraits or drawing of men? I know personally that I gravitate to the female figure just because we are prettier to look at! ;) So when I see a piece of art of a man, I find it very striking. Beautiful work!
Miriam, interesting point. He's very young, but who knows. I found a fine art printer in RI (iolabs) who can get them done very quickly and they're exceptionally good - so I guess I'll wait until the orders come in.
