New painting

 Greetings

I have recently completed another acrylic painting.

I am rather pleased with this one. I think the hands have come out particularly well.

I call this "Eighteenth", referencing both the uniform ( 18th Hussars) and his youth.

I used lots of close-up photos of my 18th hussar uniform to get the braiding patterns right. He is, of course, wearing the Ball Dress version of the uniform, showing the waistcoat in the facing colour.

Until next time

Adieu
