Lee was kind of a tough cookie. Mom did not have lots of pictures of Lee on the beach and since he is a senior in High School we could not do another photo session. In the photo I used as a reference, he is slightly under an umbrella. Nixed that and just tried to make it work. Painted on a 8 x 10" linen canvas.
Wonderful whimsical painting with personality! Great job working with what you had and capturing a sunny guy full of fun. Congrats on all the Commissions!
