I've only been painting for about 6 or 7 weeks so this is a very early atte

My spouse?s father passed away two years ago. My artistic mission is to memorialize loved ones so I began experimenting in a variety of mediums in order to capture Conrad?s essence at the twilight of his life.This photo is of my first completed attempt in oil pastel on heavy grade watercolor paper. The effect was striking but my wife wanted a larger and more artistic painting on which I?m currently working on. Once completed, I?d like to post my final painting for comparison and critique
