Wonderful portrait of this great musician Al! Great details and beautiful coloring. You captured him so very well! Favorited (Thanks for visiting my gallery earlier by the way - your support is so appreciated!)

The detail and color are very good, I especially like how you put in that little bit of white into his hair and mustache. He also has a certain hunch in his back which goes very nicely with his character.

Amazing portrait. I love the way you painted his features. A great musician that I'd love to have hanging on my wall. Great style.

A real portrait.eyes and gestures are so sharp taht it looks like a colourful photograph.The colour of the face and the background suits well.Also the colour of the coat and background are clearly and masterly distinguished. Thanks

The duke himself! He looks great in this painting, though his eyes are not so bright but you did well. Well done.

Gotta love the Duke, I'm listening to him right now, he looks a bit sad here, i usually don't get that image when i listen to him.
James Oldfield
A great work depicting a truly great musician. His character and modesty shine through the broad strokes of the artist's brush, well done!
