GREAT, my friend!! I can see David is your fav., his portraits are very deep and heartfelt... I'm curious to see the one with the finger behind his mouth finished again compliments
Thank you very much my friend. It's my 1st coloured pencil portrait, it took me ages but I really enjoyed doing it. With the other Bowie portrait, I could do with some more acrylics brushes, then I can carry on with it.
it must be easy to you to use coloured pencils.. i think watercolors or acrylics are more difficult! I've go t watercoloured pencils, but it seems hard to paint a face with them... they seem to be fine to colour backgrounds or trees...
With coloured pencils it's using the right colours for the skin tones, then everything else comes after. I used to be a screen printer so I'm not to bad at mixing colour and judging what colours to use.
You transfer an image on to a mesh screen and use ink to print. I printed on card, metal, fabric, glass, perspex different things. I did it for 5 years in my 20s.
of course it have to be a good surprise...it happened the same to me, i miss to watch the site just for that day, I only found messages by friends and I was 'astonished'

... you say you work as 'screen printer?' it means you work like an image editor..??
You transfer an image on to a mesh screen and use ink to print. I printed on card, metal, fabric, glass, perspex different things. I did it for 5 years in my 20s.
interestin and, I think, creative work! I work as a administration employer... a little bit boring

I'm a carer these days, I look after children with special needs. They are wonderful kids.
really? what old are they?
I look after a young girl mainly, she's 15. She's a happy girl. always smiling.
do you look after her in a school/institute or at house? It seems to be a satisfactory work..
I used to at her school, now it's at my home. We have great days out and I take her places she likes.

at your home? it seems like a kind of adoption/fostering!??! it's like having a daugther...

It's respite really, I look after her a couple of days a week .It's very rewarding.

yes, I guess it.. it's like we say a child 'in affido'. you'll be very affected to her

She trusts me and she is always smiling. Thanks very much for sending the photos, they are lovely.

It's actually haunting just how close the likeness is and the accuracy of the skin-tones. Really nice work.

Really pleased that I got his likeness, thank you sooo much for your comment.
