A little sketch of Mr Michael Sheen’s Mozart, in the style of Sir Joshua Reynolds’s self portraits. That 90s production of Amadeus seemed very spectacular.
The fleshtone in a lot of Reynolds’s paintings faded severely because of the use of fugitive colours like carmine. But I think the lack of rosy cheeks intensifies the drama sometimes since the warm/cool contrast becomes even more stark…
Man, your work is always mindblowing, and you deserve more notes!
