Portrait of the artist as an angry young man. by Michael Mcmanus

Hey Michael this is brilliant

Thanks sailor.

Brilliant as it is.

Thanks Gudrun.

And it's a brilliant from me too!!!!

A great portrait Michael!!

Thanks Louise. I like the palette and the way the paper has stressed by overworking it but my jaw's too square and my eyes aren't slanty enough, at the least.

Thanks Satu.

Bags of character Michael and a fine attempt.

Seems like ages ago, those uniforms withe the bellbottoms. And I bet you still feel the same inside.

Thanks Jim. I do Marjorie.

Great portrait Michael, you must be very pleased with this one, well done.

Thanks Maria. I've just done another which looks more like me and uploaded it. See you in the morning.

Really good effort Michael, well painted.like the layering for the shadowed areas,all in all a terrific selfie.

Thanks Andre.

Another version with a different expression, still cheeky! ;))

It's looking good Michael.

Thanks Carole and Margaret.
