An unexpected use for a computer in art... by Amanda Bates

Hi again Amanda, at least you have managed a smile with this one! Love the light in it as well.

I knew it was you the minute I saw the image - luckily I don't use pastel except for the odd highlight on my watercolours.

Thank you Ros, Michael. The light was the reason it happened, and I'm glad that there is a resemblance between my self portraits. Although it occurs to me that it could just be a distinctive pair of spectacles. Hmm.

I like this self portrait the best, so far, because I am sure you will treat us to more.
