I realise her beauty spot dissappeared at some stage...I now put it back in.

Wow David, I've been following the thread on the forum re this and I must say you have done a terrific job of this painting! Such a great likeness and what a huge painting to attempt. Well done you!

Thanks.

Very nice work Dave.

Lovely painting David.

oh dear

I wonder what 'henry' meant, but we shall pass over it, I think. I too followed the story of this one on the forum, observe that you've learned a lot from it, and am very glad that you took your own path - if you haven't the time, or the inclination, to take an academic art course, you have to teach yourself, largely by reading and doing: and there's a lot to be said for it. I think this painting is an achievement, in the sometimes rather unsympathetic medium of acrylic.

By the way, I've sent you a private message - don't want you to be another of those who have been driven away, however unintentionally, from the forum.

First portrait I have done at A2 size... learnt lots from it (like put it down and walk away and you may notice that something is completely misplaced)

About the Artist
D Hillman

Inspired by an artist friend I came back to paint a bit at the end of 2017. At the moment I am enjoying it and maybe because I have the patience to look more than I once did I am finding it easier and more enjoyable to actually produce a likeness.
