Mr Ivor Smugness Esq. Toned A4 sketchbook-Watercolour Pencils.

Comments

very effective , Lewis , has the smug look of a politician. The back ground does contribute as a total contrast to the figure and I think it is a good balance.

You have an extraordinary gallery Lewis and your drawing skill is out of this world!

Thank you for your comments Mike and Satu. Mike, I don't think politicians have anything to feel smug about now...but I guess some still are. Thank you Satu for your generous comment about my gallery.

Brilliant as usual Lewis. The background is unimportant here as all our attention goes to Mr Smugness.

A great character painting Lewis, although his coat is making my eyes a little dazzled this morning, hope I don't get a migraine 😂😂😂

Terrific Lew. Chairman of the amateur dramatic society without a doubt. Great work on the stripes and colours.

Smug indeed, brilliantly captured Lewis. I agree wholeheartedly with Satu's comment about your drawing skills too.

Ah ah reminds me of Mr Portillo :) a great image Lew.

Posted by Carole Swingler on Fri 01 Feb 12:27:36

Yes there is a look of Portillo here, facially and clothes! Goodness knows how you do some of your expressions Lewis but they are brilliant and always make me laugh!

This tan sketch-book is kept for portrait style pics...not 'real' portraits...made up ones. This was done with watercolour pencils.

About the Artist

Lewis Cooper

Self taught. Love drawing. Like to make pictures up, without using reference pics, often in cartoon style. I do other pictures where I do use reference. I'm knocking on a bit, born in 1940 in Greenwich, London. Retired, and loving it.
