A monk in the making...
Kinda serene, don't you think?
They call him The Mad Monk of Poker, or is it just The Monk? Either way, I had to paint Andy Black with a Tibetan Buddhist orange garb on, anything else would have been plain wrong. Although, obviously, it could just be an orange t-shirt. These mistakes are easy to make.
I wanted Mr. Black's serene Buddhist qualities and noble presence to shine through, and I think I caught him just right. The goatee he often wears, I feel, adds a lot of character to his face so I painted that on as well. And apparently, he's a really nice guy in real life too.
With the completion of Andy Black, there is now only (only?) 27 portraits left to paint...
