Hello and thank you for visiting my art! This is a 16 X 20 oil on canvas painting. It was another value study. The bottom picture I did first and then on the top picture I used a tint and glaze to finish. I hope you enjoy your visit today and I appreciate any and all comments and thank you in advance for them! :) May you all have a wonderful day!! :)
