Absolutely fantastic Anthony. There has been a discussion on the Forum here about whether artists are relaxed when painting. I’m thinking not in this case!

Portrait of a Portrait artist painting a Portrait.... battling through the distractions. I wanted to portray a relaxed body language... even though I've tried to show the artist displaying just a little tension (can't be easy doing that job). Oil sketch on board.
