Mr. Konopacky

A gift for our neighbor and friend
Our neighbor Mike Konopacky lost his dad last year and asked that I do a portrait of him for the family, and here it is ~

Mr. Konopacky, 14"x11", oil on canvas by Judy Burgarella

Mr. Konopacky made it to his 100th birthday, fishing right up until the end in his hometown of Steven's Point, Wisconsin.  He was sharp and feisty, with a good wit.  Rest in peace dear old man.

I only just remembered this painting, so it is out of the order in which it was painted.  During this Covid-19 pandemic, you'd think I would have done lots of paintings.  Don't know where the time went, but it wasn't so bad since we live on a beautiful canal in the sweet town of Sebastian, Florida. 

Will post again when I do something artsy portrait-wise.
