What a wonderful setting you chose! So much more interesting than the bricks in the original picture.

I've been temped by that series of prompts, and even downloaded the source photo. But bum that I am, i didn't do it. I think it's brilliant to simply make two men, repetition and variation. How'd you deviate your septum? Owww!

I love that you gave the guy a buddy and a more pleasant atmosphere in which to dwell. It's a lovely painting, and I wish I was fishing with them.
