I've completed my first commissioned piece, just in time for Christmas. It was a request from one of my wife's coworkers as a gift for her son. In the center is a fairly recent portrait of him, while on each side are alternate future versions of him as either a biker gang member or an executive. Got lucky and found the awesome frame for the three of them as well, though since I did these on Pastelbord, they're too thick to fit with glass in front. Going to have to be careful with it and maybe get some thin plexiglass to cover them.

Johnny Depp - Complete
Finally, I finished the Johnny Depp portrait I've been working on forever! Here's the completed product...I didn't realize how horribly yellow my previous photo was, so this one has much better lighting.
All in all I'm very happy with how this turned out. Comments are always welcome.
Now my easel is free for commissions! Anyone? :)
