Nice one Ray, One thing though and not your smudging but the right eye as you look at the screen looks well weird ?

Palms

Beautiful work, Ray, and very painterly! I love it. Some of the details are extraordinary.
I agree with Palms' comment about the eye, though.

Marty

I like this portrait. You have a very deft and soft touch with the brushes that you use.

Thanks to all.....appreciate the feedback

Believe it or not, one eye is substantially larger than the other in the orignal and I left it as such.

Perhaps I should swap them and make them both almost uniform etc....may give that a try

Thanks for poitning it out.....I did wonder when I was smudging if I should fix it.
Best wishes

Hmm this one is a dilemma, do you fix or don't you ? i try to keep things as the photo, but if it just the angle that the photograph was taken i would try to fix, If the lad does have one eye different from the other i think i would leave alone
