The Picker-Banjo-Figurative

 Close up

Oil on 7x5 canvas panel.

This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. Ros did the honor of hosting this week and provided a bunch of great photos!

 Musicians seem to be good subjects. Studious, concentrating, the goal of producing audio art! That's the attitude I usually look for.

I did the sketch on the panel with a Tombow Pen. It did some nice blurring and backwashing when I applied thin acrylics to tone the support ( it's not waterproof like I thought it was). So I left some of it visible in the finished work.
This is about 90% painting knife.

C&C welcome. Thanks for looking and commenting!
