What a wonderfully fun portrayal! Nice, soft blending makes this piece work nicely--like that he's offset! :) -KerraKathryn Arruda 10 Mar 2006

great composition. It pays to add the extra detail like this!Anonymous Guest 07 Sep 2005
Hello Chris. The thing which you intuitively realised is that his left side of the face is a bit rotated forward compared to the right. The hair and forehead above his left ear could be reduced a bit, the left side-burn brought closer to his left eye. At least I think so!!Jay Amatangelo 07 Sep 2005
