Portrait of an old man

Every once in a while I do a portrait of an old man, this collection feels different to my portrait of a young woman collection, a bit on the sadder side as well, I also see myself in all of them, I have had a rough life, and those paintings sometimes bring tears to my eyes, I don't like to talk about my personal life much because I think people should appreciate my work for what it is, and not for my sob story, as I struggle with reach and visibility be it here on Artstation or Instagram I sometimes think what if I told them my sob story would that help my work? but immediately I feel like slapping myself XD I am an artist, not a beggar, so here we are posting to a few people who see my work and appreciate it, thank you for your continued support!
