I don't understand the blue dot in the right corner of his mouth. The whole lower-right jaw area doesn't hold up as well as the rest of the painting the way I'm seeing it. The upper lip looks lop-sided.

a bit exaggerated, but sweeeeet. Is Kev 20?

I think the blues, and the purples stand out a little bit in this photo. (I tried to fix it)
You saw it in person, did it look that blue?

And the lip is a little wonky.

Thanks for the critiue bro!

I didn't want to push the exaggeration to much in fear of losing the likeness. I'm still kinda new to painting.

Yes Kev is 20! You get crabs!

This is amazing work. I didn't know that you did oil portraits.

I've been painting maybe a few months now.
This isn't typical of my portrait style.
I tried to add a little caricature to it.
