This work was completed, minted and published in one single edition on Makersplace in late summer 2023.
You don't have to be grey or wear a grey suit to feel distinguished. It is more a question of competence and prestige. Behaving competently commands respect and makes you feel distinguished.
A hat and and walking stick can help though…
In the summer of 2023, in the French hamlet of "Le Phaux" (Auvergne), I spent a single session creating the outline of this work. The outline was an acrylic painting on paper (50 x 70 cm). Later, I digitised and vectorised this work. I then added several layers to obtain the desired effect. I concentrated on shifting the colour to neon and reinforcing the lines and - almost - black shadows. The eyes have been completely revised to achieve a penetrating look.
The (digital version) of the original painting is still part of the final work, mainly to give (colour) variation, structure and depth to the work.
Available in my Makersplace Galery
