you always seem to arrive at a perfect match of technique and style to the subject! This is a terrific, manly portrait with no prissy, fussy stuff at all - BRAVO!!
I put the emphasize on the texture. thick oil brush strokes show his inner power and stamina(the colors of foreground and background are also of some use)
Honestly Shahin, i have no clue what i must think about this whole 2010 circus in RSA... i know i sound like a bad patriot right now, but listening and seeing how the things get handled down here... maybe i have too much german blood in my veins, they always have to have everything 100%... or used to... all i can say: i think 2010 will be a World Cup, that will go down in history... i know i am staying home, not going NEAR those stadiums... with the hooligens vs our crime hungry "tsotsis" (thieves, muggars etc)... ... but heck, i still hope to be proven wrong! Then i will be the very first to apologize for not being more supportive!!!
To be honest with you, i am not that into soccer anyhow, i find it weird that a couple of me chase one ball and start crying if they get a little slap on the leg or arm and demand a yellow or red card for the player who touched them.... then next thing, the paramedic runs down the field with "super juice" and all of a sudden the player jumps up and no sign of tears or tantrums... weird... but i don't mind if people enjoy the game... we don't all have to like the same type of sports... Are you a big soccer fan?.... i don't really have a team to support, defnetly not the Bafana Bafanas i am not 100% german, not 100% spanish and not 100% french... is there an international mongrel team playing? thats me!
some people think soccer is a ridicule game. we can prepare 22 balls and give them to the players and put and end to the conflict but seriously I am not a footbalist but I like to follow some of important games from tv.
pardon me, the English is my second language and sometimes I am no efficient enough to explain myself when I said I am not Footbalist, I meant I don't play football(soccer) in the field, but I like to see the soccer games in TV(with a big bag of popcorn also)
Oh Shahin, you are too kind, you know english is my second language too, my first language is german. I did actually understand you and still understand you very well, i think your english ROCKS! i am going to have some popcorn later... but not while watching a football/soccer game i am going to the movies this morning... i like my movies... speak to you very soon!
