Bogart
This was one of my practice portraits I did back when I discovered I could paint. It’s one of my favorites. If I remember correctly it came out much better than the image I was using. I think the image was old faded and blotched just like the original Hollywood print -I think!
Bogart belongs to the following groups:
1 on 1: The Fine Art of Portraiture , FAN FRENZY, Oil Painting and Realist Traditional Art
