JOSEPH SAPULICH COPYRIGHT © 2011, OIL ON LINEN 18x24"

Finally done! The painting itself went fast but finding the time to actually sit down and paint is the challenge for me these days. Anyway, the painting is complete because it says what I want it to say and nothing more can add to that statement. Special thanks to my friend Jim Martin who posed for this oil. 

OIL PAINTING IN PROGRESS

Block-in stages; charcoal sketch and over all wash to background and upper face. I'm going to leave the background unfinished and just add the beard and indicate parts of the collar and jacket. These shots were taken under north light with no color correction so the colors may be a bit of depending on your monitor.
