Found a picture of Keith Richards in a magazine and thought it would be a good challenge to airbrush, here is the result.

Painted with water based paints on canvas board 16" x 20"

Excellent Painting!
This is just my personal view and maybe not useful to you but edges are an incredible tool for greater control of directing the eye, creating greater depth, emphasizing what you want the viewer to focus on most etc... For example blur some of the hair and give a bit of edge to the headband at it's closest point to the viewer.
That said it is a great, no, excellent job!

Thanks for all the comments. I think it took no more than 8 hours, I don't track the time I spend on paintings as I tend to work on them while my printer is running or when I get a few free minutes, all I know is it took longer than it should of.

Ian I am thinking about going to the Hobart meet but have to wait to see how some things pan out before I commit.
