It's lovely free pastel - he must be pleased.

Thank you Maureen - fairly! It looks enough like him to be recognisable, but isn't quite right.

Beautiful portrait, Margaret, lovely loose style.

This is a great portrait, Margaret.

It's how you see him Margaret. That's all that counts in portraying art. We can all find some fault with our own work, but see the merits of it being your art. It's good work.

I think it is a very good impression of your husband ,nice and loose style, Margaret.

Excellent portrait Margaret. Pastel is such a gorgeous medium for this subject.

Really good Margaret well done!

This is wonderful Margaret, so .sensitively painted with very good brushstrokes. Love it.

What a lovely portrait! Mine only stays still when asleep...lol!

Really, really good Margaret....well done!

Thank you very much for your lovely comments - much appreciated :) Thalia, he was doing a crossword or sudoko so kept reasonably still for a while!

That’s a lovely piece Margaret

Very good Margaret, very effective.

Well he must be pleased with this Margaret. Lovely loose pastel.

Thank you Dorothy! I don't think he thinks it's too bad but it doesn't look quite like him.
