Photo
Dear Chris and Steven,
New photos have been posted above for a more accurate repesentation. (The shirt showed up much brighter and lighter in the previous images and the darks appeared darker.)
Since this issue had been pointed out earlier, I took care not to emphasize the shirt or the background painting. Still, I agree with Steven that his skintones may come up a notch.
Chris, I will re-check my measurements. Sometimes, when I finish off edges, my heads shrink!
The challenging source image was given to me by Mr. Passantino for his portrait. I feel compelled to make it work as close to the orginal as is artistically reasonable. In a way, it is my homework assignment!
Thank you for your caring comments,
Jeanine
