Superb work, the guys of your grandads era had such style compared with those of today such as one direction , showing my age now. .. You have really captured the character of these people. My dad had home brew in the corner of the living room in a dustbin.

Lovely portrait Chris, full of the power of emotional attachment, beautifully done, love the tweed jacket collar! Harks back to another time for many of us.

cheers Ros yeah he was agreat man and im pleased with the effect of the jacket.

A couple of super postings. I particularly like this one - there's so much personality captured in the eyes and the light falling across the face is just so effective. Thanks so much too for your very kind comment on my painting.

Two super additions to your gallery Chris especially this one of your grandad.

More fantastic drawnings well done Chris!:)Linda

Thank you Seok,Val and Linda your comments are very much appreciated cheers.

Brilliant drawing, and a very handsome man to boot.

Hi Fred, much appreciated, yes he was a very hansome man (didnt get passed to me!!)and young for his age until he was chairbound with a stroke. Thanks for the comments.
