Je peins rapidement normalement, mais après un peu de la maladie. I' ; prochain support de m seulement maintenant jusqu'à la vitesse supérieure. J'ai dessiné des douzaines de schémas avant que je sois venu sur le site Web, ainsi il signifie que j'ai un approvisionnement sans fin en sujets. Je suppose que je pourrais mettre eux sur l'emplacement, mais I' ; bâton de ll aux peintures de carte de travail. Comme vous, j'ai dessiné les schémas en pastel pendant beaucoup d'années. Des bébés et des enfants d'amis elle était bon fondre dans la tonalité et la couleur.
Thank you, One wholw day and two re-starts. I'm not 100% happy with it. I think I made the eye and lips to far a part causing me to lose a little likeness. I'm not a big Fan and I've seen her looking different in so many photo's..
Thank you, It's becoming a bit of a trademark now, High impact Close up's. The only problem is finding subjects, they must be well known and have likeness faces.
Thank you, A shed full of different techniques. Because it kept going wrong I had to re-start it twice the distance between eye and Mouth was important so I lost a little of each. I have another in my mind.
Thank you, Just FUN, fun, fun, enjoyment in doing something I love. I only remember one thind, practice, patience and perseverance there's no short cut to hard work.
Thank you I enjoy the different ones, more than the straight forward ones. It is true though that inspiration is a thing worth chasing. The secret of painting or drawing is originality, technique and likeness. Easy to say after 50 years of practice. My favourite painter is Frenchman Edgar Degas. he said 'art is not what you see, but what you make others see'!
Thank you, I had it off the web at:

I hope you enjoy the Website Just type address into serch engine and it will take you there.
Thank you, Once mastered the close up is the best painting, it inspires and looks realy difficult, when they are not the hard to paint. It's not the painting but the planning I take longer looking for the pose and person than painting them you painted your watercolour of Ema W very well I've visited your gallery a seen it to improve I would look at both side one side is excellent the other just very good so with the next just paint one side as an expeirment. Only half the likeness just try to pick the right Celb. Old and Ugly is good as we old people have plenty of lines on our faces.
Thank you, why is it so real, Ok I studied her face and saw it was her, eye, nose, hair and lips that made her what she was, so I used a framing tool which is a piece of black paper with an rectangle (square) hole cut out, placed onto a photo with hole at the right size then juggled it, until it still looked like her but was the minimum size. For painting then I drew the larger one, onto the A4 W/C paper and painted away. It's called setting out or setting the pose. Over the years I've learn colour tone and balance, this is the other part of painting, all skills, all learnt, you get better at them all. Likeness is spotting the things in the face to draw and putting them onto paper. Saying that, I now use either watercolour pencils or a brush to draw the face. Practice, every failed one is a step nearer perfection. When the great masters had students they painted the smaller less important bits of say a large portrait. Its only since the French impressionist ( who I love) that the school of art change to individual painters, but they still got drunk together and ate together and argued constantly.
