That Jewish bloke what wrote the book, seems like he should be applauded for being able to pull off writing a whole book at this stage of life. That's a pretty massive undertaking that I would find daunting even at my youthful age about to break 60. Bet the ghost writers were busy helping him.
But it's a very canny portrait that. I can see the ethnicity of it in a sort of caricature form. Very cool and you probably only had the television to draw from? Not too shabby at all, lad.

As to the one lass with the 5 o'clock shadow what's pluckin' the guitar or lute or whatever, must be careful of using black or dark gray for shading flesh on women especially in the context of Mary Cassatt style pastel palette. Common mistake. . . unless of course this is a gender bender.

But the mother and children paintings are really sensitive otherwise and evoke a very sentimental mood of a mother's love and familial contentment, even without taking the paintings to the further level of finish as did Ms Cassatt. There's enough to get the idea squarely in the canvas. You're doing remarkable stuff, Mr. Plus.
