Description
Painter and Wacom tablet.
A portrait of my friend Kim Lawler, who died last April from cancer. The first time a close friend of mine has died. I miss you, K.L.
The only reference photo I had was very small and very fuzzy, so this is about 25% from memory (my memory is also small and fuzzy, lol). This is very close to how I remember him.
Here is a link to copy and paste if you would like to see a step-by-step tutorial explaining my painting method:

Thanks for looking,
John

Well done.
really well painted, there is a soul in the image
A fine tribute to a close friend. I have a feeling he likes it very much.We should all be so lucky as to affect someone enough to inspire creation. Well done.
Excellent portrait. I remember another image (Bryce?) that you posted shortly after his death..
outstanding portraiture work...very expressive eyes and nice, friendly facial expression...you've given him a warm personality for all who view, what a wonderful gift and memorial...I'm sorry for your loss, it's never easy for those left behind, but sometimes for the best thing for those who pass over...
