Portrait of Michael

Portrait of Michael
A smile alive with warmth and grace,
Framed in light, a grounded face.
His steady gaze, both kind and clear,
Holds time and memory ever near.

This acrylic on canvas employs figurative realism with stylized clarity, using clean outlines and soft colour modulation to emphasize character and presence. The brushwork is confident yet controlled, echoing the traditions of contemporary portraiture rooted in sincerity and personal narrative. It’s a tribute to the subject’s spirit, rendered through direct composition and tonal warmth.
