I don't usually do portraits because im not very good at them (as you can tell) but i gave it a shot
I'm trying to do my daughter next, but portraits are hard. I had no idea how difficult getting relationships and proportions could be. This didn't turn out too well but I learned a lot. Until the next one ;-) Thanks again for your kind words & support
MHK, you did fantastic job! He is recognizable, as with everything more you practice better you get.
Portraits are challenging but you are doing great with human figures and portraits will come to success with time. Proportions are the key as they define similarity. Use grid, projector, anything you prefer in the beginning to start seeing things and then go freehand.
You did very well here! Hats off to you.
Sunnylady, as always your help is spot on, I widened the hat and cemetrically it looks better ;-)
Doggymom- very kind thanks
My best friends GF asked me to do another Smooth Criminal one for her, so I'm going to highlight MJ with a white aura and then build out with ( I think ) Gold, maybe black. Thoughts?

It's a gem MHK!
When you put your own artistic accents in it, every portrait is a success.
Next Mick Jagger?! 😊
