Here is what I am hoping will be the final version of my Pow-Wow Indian. I have submitted it to the Watercolor Workshop and, barring major suggested changes, this will be it. While it took longer to do this one, I have grown somewhat attached to it. I do like it, even though I don't consider myself a portrait artist. I think his face painted itself because I loved his features when I first saw the reference photo. Again, thanks to Diana Webb for her excellent photo and especially her permission for me to paint from it.

Pow-Wow Indian - Final (I hope)

Susan if you aren't just jumping up and down proud of yourself, you should be. This is an awesome painting. It is better than good.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Vicki! I am rather proud of this guy since it took such a long time to work on him. Maybe that is why I am proud of him, but it also required that I really think about my next steps(s). Can't hurt!
