Better get that man in a thicker coat. All this snow will kill him dead on the spot. The wrinkles on his face are generous compared to his older portraits but Old Tippecanoe severed in the military and valued his interpretation of his own strength even when it killed him. A more youthful old age is fair and I see you tried to carve more sag into his skin with that giant black outline on his right side. Don't be afraid to imagine the realities of time smacking people around. The skin tone and perk in his eye are all well and good but use darks to go to town on his features. You don't need thicker shadow colors then you've got for the bags under his eyes or the dimples in his strangely long boyish face but you set the light direction in this.

Outside of a strange desire to see rogue hairs shooting out of his bushy eye brows and old style rouge being applied to the picture to make him look more alive. (Also this is thicker hair then the man probably ever had. Even when he was young he had a Napoleon hair cut. When did he steal George Clooney’s scalp?) This is an excellent clothed portrait of Harrison. I particularly like how you sunk his eyes and any color mix in them only made them more eerily real.
