'Richy' - a portrait for my Dad



This was an experiment.  I knew I had 3 hours to do a portrait of my brother to give to my Dad for Christmas.  So I just got on with painting.  

Pretty pleased with it.  There was a point after 2 hours where it proaly looked more vibrant, colourful and looser but I figured it needed some finesse-ing to finish it off.  I guess I over finessed!  
Still, lesson learned, though the lesson of when to stop is the hardest thing to master.  Lookiing forward to 'playing' in a similar manner with some cycling subjects.
