Not many notes, just a very quick impressionistic portrait to shake the lead out after the intensely detailed focus of AD 134.
He's near the end of his Clyde Logan era, but Adam still has that beautiful mane of hair and his characteristically scraggly beard, though that hollow under his cheekbone shows he's beginning to get leaner in preparation for playing Toby in "The Man Who Killed Don Quixote."
Photo used for reference was taken by Miller Mobley for the 1 Feb 2017 edition of The Hollywood Reporter; it was an especially interesting out-take, because it was a double exposure, taken just a fraction of a second apart. I chose not to show the doubling, in an effort to not make things extra difficult for myself, but that did mean I had to decide which set of forehead wrinkles to render, and which set of moles to paint.
About 4 hours of painting time. I kept fussing with it and finally had to make myself stop because the entire idea was to NOT fuss with it endlessly. I kept the canvas small and decided not to do my usual closeup crops because there's basically no fine detail to zoom in on in this one, that was the whole point.
