Portrait of Guido
1 Attachment(s)
This is a posthumus oil portrait of my uncle Guido. I had to work from a black and white photo. The painting is life size. Thanks for this opportunity to unveil it.

What a beautiful portrait. I would love to see a more close up view. Your uncle lives on!

Wonderful execution. Your family is fortunate to have such a talent. When you say life size... what were the dimensions?
|
I really like this. It is a beautiful painting and a brand new family treasure.
Congratulations!:thumbsup: :thumbsup: |
A labor of love. Great job! You have done this a few times.

Thanks so much for all the encouraging words. They really mean a heck of a lot to me! Sorry, Mike, for not getting back to you sooner, the linen size is 38" X 30".
Best regards, Steve O.K. now, back to that nose! |
May I join the chorus of praise for this loving tribute? Just when I see myself leaning toward the "Premier Coup" style of painting, this "invisible brush" beauty appears. I am reminded that a painter can take realism beyond reality to create an icon. The fact that this was done from a black and white photo is practically unbelievable! You must have known this special man very well.
Thank you for sharing. |
