Default Emmett Kelly

This is my version of Emmett Kelly, He is 9.5" high and 5" wide. Basswood, acrylic paint. He was done with no pattern just a picture to go by. All comments welcome. I hope you like him
Thanks for looking
Larry

He is really great looking, you paint job is excellent and you really got some great expression on his face, which is really hard to get. It is wonderful.
