If I've got the math right this calculates to roughly a 38" canvas. And it looks like you could easily add some room top and bottom.

Well, I have no math brain, so thanks for figuring this out for me. I generally do my children's heads at around 7". Based on what you have here, a 30 by 40 would be sufficient but a 24 x 36 would have him looking dinky. I think she will be fine with 30 by 40, I am just trying to make sure he looks proportionate.
