Classmate of HS 494

Oil on Canvas
Size of 50x75 (cm)
This is the first one of my another portrait series. They will be my relatives or friends holding something special to them. He was my old classmate of Senior High, class of 494. He was seated near me for 3 years. We loved to chat and to play Chinese 5-point chess during lunch time. We played it on old books with color pens. After school, we used to leave together for different bus at the rare gate. He is a father of two, marries to the teenage lover. I enjoyed of visiting them, and I took this photo when I stayed with them last Oct in Beijing. He is stationed in Beijing for IBM for several years. He is not bald, only because this photo was taken against morning light with his buzz haircut. He changes very little since High School.
I am trying to record my friends/relatives and meaningful things for this era.

This will be the start of a fun series. I will paint classic portraits with a modern landscape. It's a good practice for me. I enjoy it very much.
