Portrait of Man in a Hat

"Kenn"

8"x 6" Oil on linen

I have been painting! I wiped this portrait of my husband twice and then started over on new linen this afternoon. So I've been painting on this over three days.

The reference for this portrait is a photo I took about five years ago. Kenn doesn't have the mustache anymore, but he has worn one about thirty out of the almost 40 years we have been married. He's such a hunk......
