Portrait

I think Dustin mentioned in a previous post that his friend Zachary Proctor was going to do a football portrait of Steve to test. Well, it is finally done and it is amazing! Dustin and Zack are friends from high school and he does amazing work. He mentioned to Dustin that he would like to do one of Steve to test out his skills in the sports arena. Well, he proved that how extremely talented he is. Dustin decided to do this as a gift to Steve for Christmas and Birthday and he couldn’t be more pleased. It’s quite large. The height is about 3 ½ feet, just to give you some perspective, but here it is.

Isn’t it amazing how well he captures the eyes? Not only does it look like you are looking at a photograph (not a drawing), but it feels like you’re looking right into Steve’s eyes. Steve was truly amazed by every detail that was included. So impressive!

While Zack was in the midst of working on this project, one of Zack’s friends and his son stopped by. While they were away from the painting they came back to find the friend’s son as shown in the picture below:

We were all so impressed by this picture. It’s almost like a young boy looking up at his dreams. Truly a beautiful photograph and quite touching! If you haven’t taken a look, click here to see some of the amazing work that Zachary has done. He is an artistic genius!
