Thank You Bin Man

Comments

Well, I haven't seen the ref photo, obviously, but what a good study this is, Anjana. And all the more because it's watercolour, one of the most difficult media imo.

Thank you so much Marjorie for your generous words 😊

Beautifully done, Anjana. Wonderful clean washes, a lovely palette and tons of personality.

Looks great to me. Very natural expression on his face, not always easy to capture.

Super work Anjana. I’m sure he must have been delighted.

What a great looking chap and portrait

Super work Anjana.

My first impression was ‘what a great portrait’ I love the way you’ve painted the jumper and hair. I don’t see overworked but a great expression

Looks good to me Anjana, lovely expression on his face 👍😀

Some great washes Anjana, very good executed portrait.

You are far too critical Anjana. Love the bright colours and his very friendly expression. It certainly doesn’t look overworked.

Aww very kind of you guys. Thank you all Seok, Lewis, Tessa, Heather, Alan, Diana, Linda, Fiona and Carole so much for such encouraging comments. Tessa looking forward to showing him on the next bin collection day :-)

Just fabulous, I totally agree with everyone else’s comments.

What a great painting.

Thank you Ellen and Romila 😊

Thank you Gudrun, very kind of you :-)

Watercolour, quarter imperial. Very overworked and likeness is questionable, made him put a few pounds on! Lost the lovely tilt of head that's in the reference photo, but all good practice😊
