Tie-dye tee shirts with competition logos are commonplace among Irish dancers. This tie-dye shirt was particularly lively. His wavy hair continues the explosion of wavy lines on the shirt. There’s a theme of green and red throughout. The painting thrives on undulating lines, color, and texture. This is not the traditional, smile-at-the-camera portrait, but it does depict someone with a lively personality caught in a moment of quiet contemplation.
