Hello John, here is the art preview for your Grandfather painted in the style of Traditional Oil. This art commission was far more difficult and time consuming than a typical project due to the quality of the original photo being dark and grainy. Hopefully we brought your Grandfather to life in a memorable way. We understand these artworks are often cherished as family heirlooms. Let us know what you think of the work so far before we embark upon a potential change of the Hat color and other things. We can add the text salutation at the bottom also in the next draft. Thank you.
