This is an image of Catfish the homeless man......who is still missing.
Taken last year by a friend, but DAP'd by me. Cezanne portrait palette abou 9k.
Did extra reveal/blend on face and pups.

What do you mean missing? Had he disappeared? That is so sad! This man has such wonderful, albeit sad, character about him. I do hope he is OK and perhaps just moved away from the paparazzi. :)
Wonderful rendition Dave. I like everything about it. Did you reveal the eyes on Catfish by much?

Hey Dave, I like the effect created which not only tells a story it also shows emotion within the man. For anyone who knew and liked this man it's a wonderful remembrance....

thanks for comments....Catfish has quite the life, but plenty of street harassment.
He had mentioned going to Florida last year. We have not seen him for over 6 months

I hope he's OK. He looks plenty nice here and the puppies are the extra icing :)
