Alfonso, The Sad Pirate.

Beautiful bust sculpted long time ago by Raul Latorre.
First piece finished by me in many years.

What do you think?

Hi Marta

So good to see you painting and posting , this is a classic sculpt and well painted albeit sad looking

I particularly like the belt and the headwear and the flash of colour

Are you using Oils or acrylics ?

Thanks for sharing

Look forward to seeing more from you

Keep painting please

Happy benchtime

Thanks, I'm happy you like him.
I use acrylics only. Tried getting into using oils ages ago, but the results were extremely mixed, and I don't really like the smell.

Really beautifully painted, you've added so much expression in his face and the leather of the hat is ace.

Cheers Simon

I think that it is absolutely disheartening that you have let this amazing skill-set dormant for many years.Never give up again,you are definitely a natural.

I'm hoping to stick with the painting for at least couple of years now;p
Even though I do more and more sculpting last couple of years.

The sculpt is giving me a strond sad vibes, so I was leaning into that. I'm happy it's visible.
