Completing My Son's Portrait


My son's portrait is complete, however, I still have this urge to make some minor adjustments. Since I consider myself a novice artist I fear those adjustments could make the painting worse than before. On the other hand, since I am still learning I need to force myself to experiment. My son graduated from high school recently and I plan to give him this portrait as a gift. However, I'm sure he'll love the flat screen tv I plan on getting him for his dorm at college much more!

This painting began as grey-scale in acrylic. Once completely dried I used water-soluble oil paint which gave move life to the subject.
