I feel that you went out of your comfort zone with this one, more focus on the watercolors and less on your lines. I love your lines, but this is still a great painting.
Masterfully executed. The feeling in the eyes and gesture in the face around the mouth has so much power. I think that the upturned collar adds a visual punch!
I missed your usual amazing lines here but you made it up with an equally amazing colors, the layers are a pleasure to watch, especially with water color portraits, proves your exceptional skill!
Frank the Canadian Cowboy is a wonderful water colour portrait and I think he must think so too! Those blues and greens are gorgeous as are the facial tones you created. Just gorgeous!
