This was done after the last picture taken of my father back in 1995, at his last x-mas. (5 years and 3670 days ago)

good one
The over all expression is preserved, and nice render in color, the only thing I find that I would have liked to have seen, is that in the original photo there is a weariness/tiredness in the eyes that isn't here, but otherwise nice
great
@annabat: sure I could have made it look tired and worn -- I suppose everybody can see that's not a problem for me. But I intended to make him look the way I remember him -- and I hope you respect my right as an artist to not just copy pictures. Txs.
Very good work! well done Author!
great job! You made him look young again
oh, right, k5683, this was my intention. Don't know if you know the effect, but when you're young, your father feels like the proverbial oak tree. One day you find yourself being one head taller and twice as strong, the oak tree starting to lose it's leaves. And one day you find yourself holding the almost weightless hand which you first thought would always protect you. I accept that fading away of the oak, but I do want to remember the 'late summer tree' I used to admire.
you have done your dad proud author.. I understand all too well where you are coming from. Your picture is based within deep emtion of which a photo does not show. In your artwork however you have. Fantastic job
I can see what you have done, it almost looks as though you have left the next aged but as you move up the face it becomes more youthful - complete with a twinkle in the eye. Very poetic description in your previous post too, just beautiful!
Well done ,looks like you took him back a few years. that would have made him happy.
Glückwunsch zu noch einem zweiten Platz
