Great picture Spencer. Sadly for me I wasn't born. I'd have loved to have experienced the beatles as the songs came out.

Smashing Spencer.

Thanks Chris, Michael and Denise. Chris - The Hippy period was all love and peace ( and a slight bit of revolution ), but the art work that came out of it was interesting.

Portraits are not my forte but it gave me a chance to create this picture in layers after painting the initial portrait and then adding all the hippy aspects.

A simple way out of your dilemma is to work in monochrome with drawing, etching, lino cuts litho prints etcetera.

This is an interesting, historical work of art recording a unique social era and you have accomplished this very successfully.

Decided to go to the era of flower power and when style and colour was everything! Painted faces were the thing, usually with symbols of peace and love. I’ve given him a tie-dye t-shirt as was the vogue. It’s painted in watercolour and watercolour soluble pencils on A4 paper. And before anyone asks - no, it’s not me!

Spencer Lambeth-Angell

I only took up painting during the lockdown so a lot of my work is experimental trying to find out what techniques work well for me.
