The Joker

Yes, third up it’s The Joker, played by Cesar Romero.  I decided overnight that the way to go with this collection was to use greens and purples as my extra colours rather than using a different colour scheme for each portrait.  So we have the hair and shirt In green here rather than the makeup and maybe the jacket in red.  Time will tell whether that was the right decision.

I have a decent enough likeness here and an interesting look in the eyes but seem to be lacking a bit of the 1960s zaniness.  Even though part of the idea of restricting the colours was to tone things down a bit, it still feels as if I’ve lost something.  Maybe I’m just never happy.

This one’s not going up for sale as an individual painting, instead being included as part of the United Underworld collection.
