Portraits are difficult in which to achieve an actual likeness, no matter the medium. Requires a very special talent.:)

I was actually pretty good with portraits but I got tired of the models in class saying “do I really look like that?”

“yes you do, you really do have a big ugly nose and strange looking eyes”. Even the instructor painted you that way!

Some art galleries. Never once saw the original Elvis or Dale Earnhardt Sr. on black velvet at any of them.

I own the original Mona Lisa wallet size. At least that what the guy who sold it to me told me.
