Interesting way to treat a portaiture! It reminds the work of the Artist Chuck Close. Well Done! I am interesting in this process. I should give it a try if I find time. Thank for inspiring us.   Posted: 03/09/2025 08:38:01

A great portraiture! When looking at the man in your original image I see an interesting story. A hardened, weathered-looking person who has seen and experienced a lot in life. It's the look in his eyes, that intense stare, which speaks volumes! I also like seeing your use of the pointalism filter, I would like to try using it sometime. Thanks for sharing this.   Posted: 03/26/2025 14:02:32

Art, your title and Sylvia's comments, really point out just what this man might have been though in life. I don't know this filter but somehow it accentuates his hard, tough life. Well done.
