Been tipping away at this for a while.  I am pretty sure this started out as a doodle as it carried a landscape reference in the filename. I cant remember where the earlier versions are to show - might find them and update the post when I do.

El Pescador- After Joaquin Sorolla y Bastida


El Pescador-  After Joaquin Sorolla y Bastida
Most of the work I have seen of Sorolla have been beaches with boats people and animals.  This portrait came up at auction recently.  A great balance of refinement and painterly strokes. Was priced between $30-$50,000.
Did a quick study to explore.
