Really nice work, more amazing still because this only took you three hours! The acrylic wash gives nice variation to the piece. You really captured his likeness well.

I cannot work anywhere as fast as you do. It seems to take me forever just to get one piece completed.

Fantastic work!

Thank you! Sometimes I can't even work as fast as I do! It completely depends on mood and the need to get it done.

Lol I am about as heterosexual as a guy can get and I can still admit to seeing why incredibly gorgeous women flock to him. Thank you for the critique

That he is. Would you consider being painted in this style? You have some self portraits that would be beautiful this way. You have the looks that would put you in the category to flock to Prince. If you'd rather not, I understand.

Now where would I get off telling someone they can, or cannot paint me a certain way? If I had such power, I would be God. lol All I ask is that you use the photos that I took of myself (1072 photos), the rest is up to you. I thank you for asking before doing. Points for you! hahaha!

Lol, I'll paint however it is that I paint I always ask (unless it's a fairly common image found on google) because I respect that it's your work as the photographer. I really try to refrain from painting images that look like the photo references unless I'm the one that took the photo. The series of paintings I'm currently working on are titled the 'Chaos vs Control' series. I have a few of your self portraits in mind, but I never know when I'll suddenly know what image to use on what acrylic washed canvas. Thank you for being open to sharing- Mike
