The Last Shift by Martin Shaw

Another characterful portrait, which deserved a better surface than lining paper : come on, splash out on a bit of linen, or an ACF canvas !

You've caught an expression ... and on lining paper too!

Excellent painting.

Good gritty portrait.

Thanks everyone

Sort of always been comfy with lining paper Robert, I’ll buy some material then

Can't help but think of departed relatives who once worked 'down the mines' when I look at this Martin, terrific painting.

Cheers Russel

Superb

Great portrait Martin.

My father was a Bevin boy. So I feel a great connection. 👏👏

A powerful portrait

Thanks
