My father sent me some very old photos of his grandfather, Henry Whittal, who he wrote about in his
blog, and asked me to see if I could try and do a painting of him. I did a quick painting on masonite. I will leave it for a while and possibly do a bit more work on it later. But for now, here he is.
Very good. A strong likeness.
