A life painting of local Rochester artist, Tom Fox. This is the third life painting in my new series. Like the others it took about four hours in one painting session. I added a black background this time to reflect the darker backgrounds Tom uses in his paintings. I think the likeness is there but the colors are somewhat washed out against the strong black and too "rainbowy" overall. Will have to continue working on using more muted tones in areas of less emphasis.
