Portrait of Soldier. 16×20″ acrylic on canvas

Acrylic on canvas. Head is 2 inches from top to chin.

This is the original reference photo

This painting was very fun to do. I enjoyed the change in subject matter and the strength of the composition in the original reference photo that didn’t take much altering. The commissioner wanted his face to look more recent, as the original reference photo was taken about 10 years ago.
