Four Gentlemen on the Davenport. Portrait from a Vintage Photo
More work on my portrait of four gentlemen, from a vintage photo. As you can see it has the old scalloped edges, I'm guessing it's from the early to mid 1950s. Even though the men in the picture are cut off at the knee, I did some inventing and put them in, head to toe. The reason I did this was because I have a companion photo of their lovely women sitting on the same davenport, but in the ladies photo the feet are included. I plan on making a painting from the women's photo, too. So for the sake of symmetry I extended the men's portrait to include the feet. I wonder which one of these men took the photo? I wonder which one of the women took this photo?

The Four Gentlemen on the Davenport
Working on my second gentleman. I am using the same palette, but changing the colors slightly. Everyone has a different skin color. I don't want to make them too uniform. So while the man on the left is redder and more flush, I've made the man on the right a tad more ocher.
This is a painting from a vintage photo.

It's easy as pie, scan your photo, new or vintage and send it electronically to me. I can have the portrait done in 2-3 weeks, usually. I also accept paypal. Makes a nice gift.
