dapper man

Wanted another figure painting to pair with the Portrait of Mrs. White painting. I was initially going to make the entire coat out of newspaper but after applying the left side, I liked it better this way. He is supposed to be a Victorian-era gentleman but I think this could be from any era up to current times. Perhaps I should have added the dead-give-away oversize mustachio . . .

I spent a long time changing the color of the hat, having already deciding on the yellow/orange background with the peach/violet face---for some reason the hat color gave me fits---then I decided to break out the newspaper. So now it's a mixed media piece. Acrylic and old media.
