This is a portrait done from a photograph of a maintenance man that I met in Jamaica. He was very kind, and took care of the convent that I was at during my stay.
I still don't know to this day if "Fajoey" was his name; his accent was very thick and I had a hard time understanding him sometimes.
It's acrylic on canvas, measuring 11" by 14". It took me close to 6 hours to complete. The edges are painted black.
I'm not totally happy with the background - I find it a little too dark. I'm still learning this stuff though, so I can't have regrets about it. I'm sure someone somewhere likes it.
