Default Dad's Christmas Gift (PICS)

Some of you guys may remember my original post about my father and I going out for a fall cruise, if not, below is the tread.

https://mustangforums.com/m_4200814/tm.htm

For a Christmas gift, and to immortalize one of the best days I've ever had with my father, I took a picture fromthe cruise we did together this fall down to a local artist to have him duplicate it and blow it up, it’s 24 X 36. This particular artist is extremely good, that’s why it cost me $400+, but it was well worth the money. I can’t wait to see the look on his face when he opens it up. The painting and original are below, and as you can see, the painting is pretty dam good. Just wanted to share with everyone!
