"Blockhead" - Oil on Panel - 2021 - Who wants to help me build a frame for this painting? ;) It’ll be interesting trying to varnish this painting… Also, does this make me a 3D artist?

I completed this 8" x 10" oil painting today along side my students during my plein air painting course through IU Kokomo. The perfect day to be at the Mississinewa and observe :)
