Based on a Christmas day photo from some years back. Hope you like it.

Nice work, as usual. And, kudos to your amenable son......
Thanks for not painting the Boy in the Striped Pajamas.

That's pretty good.

I'll take pretty good. Been called much worse.

I love your art, very expressive.

Great work @hemingway. If you lived in Australia you could enter a portrait in the Archibald Prize, which is the pre-eminent portrait competition here.

Thanks. We have similar competitions here, and I might look into them when I retire and can devote some decent time to that kind of thing.

My only experience of that so far is being rejected by the Royal academy summer exhibition a couple of years back. But the stuff they go for tends to be more abstract anyway. So feck em.

Holy Cow, you are absolutely nailing the flesh tones.
I've been there, my flesh tones look like everyone has sunburn
