"Grand-daddy Evans"

2004/02
Acrylic and graphite on poster board
22" x 28"
Currently in private collection.


This was my very first portrait. It is of my grandfather on my mother's side. I used a photograph that was taken sometime in the 1950s as the reference. I did not use a full range of tones because I wanted it to look more like an old photograph rather than a modern one. The painting took me approximately two weekends to complete.
