The Accordionist

Acrylics on acrylics paper (14 x 10). Still trying to work on my figures, this was inspired by a newspaper article about a local accordionist, who told of his recent battle with cancer. He came across as a humble and dignified man.

Splendid portrait, Jacki!

Artist Reply: Thankyou for the lovely words Dianne.................I felt it could have been better but sometimes I "tinker" too much with pieces, so I left this one as it was :o))
