Portrait for competition

"Jamie" Oils on panel 16 x 12 inches, 2013.

I've submitted this for the Royal Society of Portrait Painters exhibition at the Mall Galleries -I don't know whether it will be accepted, as the acceptance rate from open submission is rather less than 5% - I'll find out on Wednesday.

Thanks Richard.

It didn't get in (predictably) - they have a distinct preference for a choppy style which emphasises faceted planes with obvious brushwork. I can do that, but I really don't think its what the world looks like :(
