what an amazing skill you have!! gorgeous painting!!

Hi Heather; he's a very good-looking chap; beautifully portrayed and shares a name with our own son! Love and God bless, Andy xx

Hi, I like all your work but this stood out, i am a sucker for contrasting backgrounds and i like the way you painted facial stubble and close cropped hair around ears etc.

I have to agree with the other artists, you have an aptitude for portraits. I agree with you about the mouth, a point made by JS Sargent," a portrait being a picture of a face where something is not quite right about the mouth". May I ask if these are from photographs or life. If the former then I would encourage you to home your skills directly from the model. Great work. Thank you too for your comments on my recent stillife.

Your portraits are fantastic Heather it is such a difficult discipline. You have a great future in art.

Yes another great piece Heather

Handsome portrait. Much skill Heather to capture the likeness.

lovely portrait you've captured the light really well

I've looked at this closely, i mean real close, and i've got say i think it's truly superb! a good looking young man, a well executed portrait, (i had to laugh at bouffant, my Son's would be the same)

What strikes me particularly about this great portrait is how well you've captured his expression. I could look at it for hours, wondering what he's feeling and thinking.

Your portraits are stunning Heather
