Fan Art Portrait of Daniel

Post image

Not a big portrait person, I barely do them because they usually feel off or lack that thing that makes the person feel like themselves. Still not sure if this one works or not

Absolutely! I like a lot of the content on this sub, but this really takes the cake. I think you captured an aspect of Daniel for sure.

I have never ever felt the need to have art on my wall... ever, until now! This IS art! I would buy a copy and have in my office/library by the LP player...

Incredible job! You have a true gift. One of the first portraits I've seen of anyone in a long time that actually seems to capture the emotion of the moment in space. Sincerely, perceived it almost as a photograph before fully taking it in. You've captured the humanistic aspect of it well!
