Strollin'

Strollin' 5x7 oil on museum board


Is this gentleman the quintessentially British chap or what?
Even my British friends say so.
I loved his character as I saw him strolling along the
seafront and he politely posed for me to
snap his photo.

Artistically I was worried that he would look
too stiff in the the painting, being so
proper and everything, but
I think I lost enough edges in the process to
keep it from being too ridged.

What do you think?
