Superb eyes Cesare

Welcome back Cesare! A wonderful portrait, like Lynne says the eyes are great but so is the softness of that luscious beard.

Wow, what a character you have given him. Love those eyebrows !

Gorgeous portrait Cesare, but why didn't you do one of Freud (or is it Fraud). I can't say he was one of my favourites, when I did my psychology degree.

Your portraits just keep improving, excellent work Cesare.

Thank you Guy, Satu, Sharon, Linda and andré for your kind appreciations. Hi Linda, I made many time ago a monochrome portrait of Freud, but I willing take your suggestion for a new portrait.

Watercolour on Canson paper 120lb A4. Dear Friends, I apologize for not having commented your paintings for a long time. As my brother Ezio said, I was writing a paper on Freud for a psychoanalytical journal. This work took me a lot of time and I had to read very much. Nevertheless, I glanced from time to time at your paintings and gave some likes. Now my work is over and I'm glad picking up my brushes again.
