“The Weight”
The inspiration for this painting came from a photograph by Lee Brown, who runs the on-line photography, art, and travel blog called A Day Not Wasted. He issues monthly challenges to artists to paint their interpretations of one of his amazing photos, and then posts everyone’s submissions in a gallery on his site. I did this painting based on October 2012’s challenge and I must say that this young man’s face had a certain countenance and disquiet that compelled me to paint him.

Great job on this piece Terry! You really captured something about him, that “disquiet” you mentioned.
Thanks, Sherry. It always helps to start with good reference material!
