This is a portrait of Vilu, the barista who saved my life by giving me CPR for almost 10 minutes before the paramedics arrived, when I collapsed due to a cardiac arrest while waiting for a coffee - he still owes me a coffee!
Painted with oils in the Zorn palette alla prima with the raw linen kept as the background. Lead White, Yellow Ochre, Vermillion and Mars Black.
