'Dewi Bach'. Face worker. by andre mulard

Superb work Andre the colours are perfect

The palette knife technique really lends itself to this rugged portrait, so expressive Andre.

The eyes capture the picture

He has the staring eyes and serious expression of a man who is not happy in his job, maybe. You have captured this miner and his mood very well, Andre.

I grew up in a mining village and saw many of these haunted faces.....perfectly captured Andre.

Brilliant work with the knife Andre, you have done him justice. A hard working face from the past.

Great painting Andre! The exhausted face of a miner after a long day.

Thanks all for the kind comments, realising this would be a virtual monochrome effect portrait, was not sure of the outcome, but am reasonably pleased with it. Again thanks for your comments.

Very moving....
