Great portrait, Marjorie!

Wow - lovely portrait!

I know exactly what you mean, my likenesses come and go on a regular basis! A very good portrait

From your previous portraits Marjorie he is certainly like his dad! Lovely work.

Thanks David, Heather and Tessa - interesting what other people see, likenesses etc.

Super portrait Marjorie. I think anyone doing portraits know how difficult it can be obtaining a good likeness but once there, it can be most satisfying.

You're such an accomplished portraitist Marjorie, fabulous painting.

I can’t know about the likeness, but I know I’m looking at very fine work.

Superb artwork Marjorie.

Excellent picture.

Very good portrait Marjorie!

Beautiful and very skilfully painted, you are so good at portraits Marjorie, they scare they life out of me.

Thank you for your lovely comments Denise, Russell, Lewis, Stephen, Peter and Federico.

And Paul! We just crossed.

This is superb Marjorie. A really good portrait skilfully executed.

Wow Marjorie- that’s a beauty- so well drawn.

Wow, excellent portrait!

Excellent portrait Marjorie.

Well, I did say you were one of our best portraitists, and here's the proof. And I know what you mean by losing a likeness by fiddling - lost one and never got it back.... in the end, I just stopped flogging myself to death with it; not a commission, fortunately!

A beautiful portrait Marjorie. Such good complexion colour.

Wonderful portrait

Excellent as usual Marjorie. A definite resemblance to his dad

I should say paintings of his dad!

Great portrait, Marjorie.

Thanks again everyone, it’s a bit disconcerting having him looking at me here 😆

That's super, Marjorie...fiddling is always too tempting, eh!!

Great work, Marjorie. Very handsome, too!

Thank you Thalia and Jennifer! 😄

Amazingly good Marjorie

A lovely portrait Marjory, very well expressed!

Thank you Frank, Skylar and Angela.

Oil sketch of my son, started at the club on Monday. Lost the likeness a bit in the middle but regained it later. It’s the urge to fiddle which causes problems….
