Eyes Revisted

Last post ended with an almost finished portrait minus one crucial portrait detail...eyes.  It can't really be a portrait without the eyes, can it?!

After some adjustments to head width and eye spacing, my painting transformed from Cuban dictator to a pleasant, lost-in-thought Uncle D.

What is he contemplating?  Knowing this image was from a photo taken while he was vacationing in Rhodes...perhaps a missionary journey of Apostle Paul.  Perhaps the choice between tzatziki or hummus.  Perhaps the well-being of his tomato plants back home.  Cold-fusion?  World peace?  Ford vs. Chevy?  Maybe we'll never know.
