Great portrait Dennis, it looks like a selfportrait.

It does I thought that myself Cesare

Excellent work dennis. Very solid portrait.

No Dennis, not you. More like that awful politician who was Rula Lenska's cat.....let me think....yes! Gorgeous George!!! It's an excellent portrait though.

Galloway of that ilk.

Good portrait. I like the colours you have used and the shadow the hat has created on the face.

Is it an SP? Even if not, it's a great portrait. Ah just read the comments.

Many thanks Michael yes George it is Marjorie and Annette very much appreciated indeed

Many thanks Gudrun no but he is quite similar very much appreciated indeed

“The longer you look at an object, the more abstract it becomes, and, ironically, the more real.” as expressed by Lucian Freud and certainly feel that when I look at your paintings Dennis. Nice work.

Wonderful portrait, Dennis - I especially like the facial highlights and shadows to create character.

Or is it a hat resting on a man? Nice portrait.

Lovely portrait, Dennis. I agree with everyone else the likeness is similar.

Many thanks Ibolya yes it's all degrees of abstraction from reality whatever that is cheers Wib who knows Linda and Ellen very kind indeed

top quality work again

Many thanks Dennis i always worry when doing a portrait because of the high quality here

Good likeness Dennis, recognised him straight away. Thinking it should be 'a' but not totally sure!

Fab colours. Powerful face.

Many thanks Stephen it doesn't matter really and Shirley very much appreciated indeed

Brilliant Dennis!! I'm trying more portraits but they're not easy!!!

Many thanks Audrey no they hold so many pitfalls and so many ways of building them. I am experimenting with light colours with the addition of white in acrylic.

Love the portrait Dennis, similar expression to your little pic ;)

That could be the thing that inspired me to do it Carole thanks.

Yes, George Galloway, that's who it is! I recognised him straight away, a brilliant likeness Dennis.

Many thanks Margaret I got very near here very much appreciated indeed
