Okay, I hear you. "Jux" will be the star of this portrait. Thumbnails will be comming soon!
Thank you for the advice. I will take it.  I'm apprehensive about my abilities to paint a convincing tattoo. This should be an interesting experience.

I decided to do a quick value study tonight and got a little carried away. Unfortunately it was too small for me to get much detail in his face and I screwed up his nose. But, at least I know that a dark background is the way to go.

Oh Jean, this'll be interesting to watch --- are you going to post your work in process? Those tatoos look like fun!

Don't hold your breath, Jimmie, I've got another project to work on while I'm doing this. I'm painting a 10 year old girl who has panic attacks. The photoshoot was cancelled twice already, we're trying for sometime this week. She's not afraid of being photographed or me, just germs and being sick. How sad to be so young and already afraid of the world.

Nice value study, Jean. I find the light corners distracting though, so I'd continue the dark background all the way out to the edges if it were me.
