Here is a portrait using the darkness of the background to pop it out, the greenish color of the hat is to counter the hair color, and the bright grass green is there to counter the lip color. Oil 9.00" 13.00" email jon@jonconkey,com for purchase info.
A "Journal of Paintings" by Jon Conkey, Themeworks was a "one-year-long" record of my progress in the art of "oil painting", and an attempt to paint 365 paintings in one year. Changing the monthly theme allowed me to focus on subjects I may not have otherwise painted. As an artist, I was looking for discovery and breakthroughs in my works through this daily practice.
