This is an oil on canvas, in and of
itself the surface is different for me because there is a texture
that masonite doesn't have. Usually I'm distrustful of people
whose adjectives tend toward the extreme, i.e., ... biggest, wildest,
hardest, fastest, the most this or most that, but I have to say
this painting was at least in it's execution one of the most difficult
in recent memory. But now the composition is simple, if not even
static. I'm just saying that my experience in painting a portrait
of Jesus without a model wasn't easy. If you think I was successful
then to God be the glory cause I tried to mess it up. In the end
I am happy with it and want to do more like it, Lord help me.
