I thinks its a case of Lewisism Fiona. I thought you was beautiful without your make up but this Knocks me out!

Oh this is priceless - I dare you to change your "I.D."photo Fiona!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't have a clue why they sketch things. This is excellent. Love a little fantasy art.

Brilliant and so Lewis!!! Medusa eh? I'm sure you're imagining things again Fiona! Great stuff

Oh 'eck Fiona, love the movable ringlets :))

The cheese must have been Gorgon-zola... I'll get my coat.

John I’m only wearing a little rouge, I don’t like to over do it. Thank you! Marjorie, I might just do that! Thanks. Lewis I’m so glad you approve, it’s a very good likeness if I say so myself. Thank you Thalia, that’s very kind of you but this IS what faces me in the mirror each morning, especially after a late night....lol. Carole the ringlets are in vogue at the moment and no need to spend a fortune at the salon! Many thanks Gudrun, glad you like it.

Very good David, wish I’d thought of the cheese link....lol. It must be all the hissing, I can’t concentrate!

She really is frightening, Fiona. I don't think you are like that. Beautiful drawing though!

Wow I just don't know to say to this. That must have been some powerful cheese!!!

Mia thank you very much....you are very kind. My husband thinks it’s a very good likeness...lol Lol....Carol, I don’t know what came over me.....of course, it could have been the Sherry!

If that's a selfie, Fiona me duck, you have problems.... and so does anyone who takes a peek at you, according to the legend. But happily - we know better. A macabre drawing a day keeps the psychiatrist at bay .... let it all out!

Well there’s different Fiona !

Well you know what they say Fiona, beauty is only skin deep, did you eat my cornflakes from the other day, you must have got all the snakes, that means there's a whole lot of Kellogg's out there with nothing in!!!! 😂😂😂

Stop blowing your own trumpet Fiona. Nobody is that good looking..(((-:

A good likeness, you say!! Do you have to use a snake-friendly shampoo?

LOL Fiona, can I have the name of your hairdresser? Also, from your shocked expression, have you just been told the cost of an invisalign teeth brace? :)

Is this your mood today Fiona? If so it's quite mild compared to mine! Nice drawing!

This will scare the kids away. Don't need to comb your hair.

Indeed Robert! I went out with a psychiatrist once and when I asked what attracted him to me, he said “homework “. Thanks Sylvia! Lol...Linda, yes lots of empty boxes. Modesty has never been one of my stronger attributes Jim....lol thank you! It’s the spit of me lewis......a new product on the market, wash & slime. Louise I wash my snakes then can’t do a thing with them. Don’t mention the dentist, I’ve just been! I’m okay though, no treatment...phew. Lol. Although the dentist needed a double brandy. Oh dear Ibolya, is it a painting not going well? Thanks very much! Lol no Carol, I can wash and go! Thank you all very much, I’ve enjoyed reading your comments, not only are you all superb artists, you’re comedians as well!

Surely this scary lady isn't a Selfie !!! but you certainly enjoy different styles. Great and those teeth ! I aren't do a selfie sketch after a red wine night.

May be Fiona, you have had too much absinth to drink before you drew this very good sketch, be careful that you don't cut your ear next time as Van Gogh did.....LOL.

Excellent passport photo?? .

obviously a bad hair day - oh would some beastie the power gie us to see ourselves as others see us . What type of cheese ?

You should see me on a bad day Richard! Lol....Annick, yes I must take care to stay away from sharp implements next time I hit the bottle! Thank you. Ha ha Tony, do you think they would let me through. Mike....it wad frae mony a blunder free us.... The cheese, as David mentioned, was Gorgon- zola.

No, this just isn't you!!

It’s great though is it based on Medusa the gorgon ?

Aw, very kind Maureen, you haven’t seen me in the morning. I have been likened to the wreck of the Hesperus! Thank you. Yes Dermot, Medusa is my sister! Lol Thanks very much for your comment.

Beautiful drawing, not sur3 about the selfie bit though😊

Wonderful sketch Fiona.

Ha! Great sketch, Medusa. Sack the dentist!! Brian

Wow, bad day in the studio perhaps Fiona. Its nice to go made now and again I find.

AGH LOOKS SCARY BUT WELL DRAWN FIONA

I've just realised how this happened -it was the result of the whisky supper!!!LOL

So you are really a very scary person Fiona? I don't believe it! Great sketch. Remind me not to draw a selfie. There's no telling what lies beneath!

David, many thanks for your comment. Thanks Sandra! Brian, funnily enough I had a dental appointment yesterday! Just a check up, no filing necessary. Lol Trevor, every day is a bad day in the studio......this look is after a pretty okay one. Thank you. Thanks Dennis, you could show this to Arthur when he’s been a naughty boy! Good Dennis, that was the whole point. You have the answer Carol, why didn’t I think of that? Perhaps because I’d forgotten all about it! Lol Lol...I think we all hide behind some kind of mask Dorothy, we are not all how people see us! I don’t think I’m too scary though, unless, someone touches my Friday night Turkish Delight....then stand back! Lol thank you for your lovely comment.

Oh my word Fiona, this is what you might call 'a seriously evil selfie'! Well drawn though!!

Lol.....thanks Margaret, I’m not too bad once I’ve had my first coffee!

Nice one Fiona, scary though

Ha ha thanks David. How’s Loki?

Love some of the comments and banter re this sketch Fiona, LOL. Loki is living up to his name and full of mischief, but his antics are really comical to watch.

That's different Fiona, I guess it started out as a boat and progressed lol, happens all the time with me. great drawing and a star all the way.
