Gustave Duquois Nevelspoock, original art

in #art6 years ago

Continuing the portraits of the @nevelspoock game that we are cyurrently producing, I present you

Gustave Duquois, original painting, 40x60cm, oils on canvas:

An original portrait of Nevelspoock: a strange family from a long lost era living in misty memories.

Gustave Duquois: born 1840, in Dijon, France.
Married to Lucinda Nevelspoock. Father of Cyrilla and Marigold Nevelspoock. Grandfather of Felix Nevelspoock.

Gustave met Lucinda Nevelspoock while she was travelling the Champagne-region on a businesstrip for Nevelspoock. He has always been loyal to the family. Or has he?
He has mysteriously disappeared from the estate, prior the beginning of the game.

Likes: wine, books on history, genealogy. He has researched the history of the family Nevelspoock and may have discovered things that weren't supposed to see daylight...

Dislikes: clutter, chocolate, typewriters.


What comes to mind when you see Gustave's portrait? The portrait is actually based on a photo of an old mayor of my town, also named Gustave (but not Duquois!). Feel free to comment, and thanks for looking!

I love this, it looks like it was done in encaustic as if it is trapped in wax, really nice.

I hadn't considered looking at it like that, thanks for that interpretation! :)

Oh my! Where could he be gone to! What mysterious man :O I wonder what he had discovered about the Nevelspoock in his research :O :O :O

Hehe, yeah, the plot thickens! Glad you like it :)

Dislikes: chocolate

ok... that makes him very suspect!

I think of a brainy cynic because he has all-seeing eyes :) I wonder where he has disappeared to.

Nice, thanks for the interpretation! :)
