That's a very nice face Andy, not a stark in contrast as you normally paint.

I'm looking forward to this one Andy, your style of painting is very Rockwell-ian

Very nice mate,eyes are very nice, only thing I can see that needs looking at is the very dark colour around the upper lips.

You have captured a very nice boyish face with this bust mate, will have to paint this one myself one day.

All the best

Does he have a mustache, or what is the line above the upper lip? Is that cast in? Just wondering
