What a great idea you put on paper. Degas and his immortal Dancers are my favorite also. In pastel filed he was a magician.

I like all french artists of that era, most of all Degas a great user of pastles and Lautrec, he was a great painter and illustrator. It took longer to plan my effort than to paint.

Beautiful!!!!!!

Thank You, Two self portraits

I love it!!

Thank you, I've Sneaked that old guy into the painting.

very clever and finelly drawn

Thank you, do you like the Caricature of the old artist in the painting. I felt so excited to be on the site. My wife said how childish I was.

I fully understand what you feel. With the time on this site you've successfully explored new way of painting and the result is here : great ! I did this morning a portrait of Degas

Thank you for your kind words I feel proud if iI have inspired anything.

I think it's great putting yourself in the painting that way. I have a photo of myself showing a waxwork Charlie Chaplin my camcorder - I have been thinking of drawing that & putting it on here. I prefer your way though of yourself actually painting. Great!!

Thank you, I took a time delay photo for referance.

Ok tghis is a little task you paint yourself and say another star like I did Edgar is my teacher ok he is dead but you know what I mean. So you paint say yourself say with a star. It's easy use a mirror for youself and a photo for the star. painting yourself is a way of enabling yourself making you more confindent. I will find a photo of me, my wife and my cat and send it you on your email tommorow it's about 10-30pm here so tomorow. My email is: brianfree@aol.com
