Hey Mom, Help me figure out a background-WINNER

I need to get cracking on my painting for the fair. First I had to figure out a good background, chubby tourists looking around holding their beers wouldn't be the best. After about an hour of creating photoshop files, and 45 minutes talking to my mom we picked what we thought would be best. I have to say the solid colors look pretty cool all together though... so I included them just cause they're pretty. Take a look at the original photo at the bottom. Oh yeah, anyone recognize Chris's feet?

  1. You know that I'm not an artist, but I recommend that you also do something with his black shorts ... I could be wrong, but don't think they're authentic to the period.

  2. Only problem is then I'd be painting a but cheek.... I don't know how Chris would feel about that!
