a more finished piece fantastic work Andre

Very, very fine, Andre. A very 'natural' (for want of a better word) look on his face. Excellent work.

Thank you Dennis and Lewis , really appreciate your comments.

A well finished piece Andre. When you said you were about to add colour, you didn't mean with glazes did you? ( unless you used Liquin for speed) Did you paint on top with colour instead?

That face is superbly painted Andre, some great touches without being overly worked.

A very fine and noble portrait Andre.

Superb solid finish An9
