I found this portrait a bit more challenging because JC decided to change his colour selection during the interview and also sent me a new photo to work from, so the final portrait was completely different to the oil pastel design I had created.
In hindsight, I should perhaps have done another oil pastel design, but impatient as I am - I just went straight into it.
I'm reasonably happy with how it turned out, except for the right side of his face - I think it came out too light and I could have made better colour choices there.
I'm really happy with how some of the shape compositions turned out, especially the mouth/nose and the jacket.
