Four super portraits Mike, different approaches, some highly finished, this one painted quickly but with great honesty. Hope your condition is improving.

I hope your health is much improved Mark. Four terrific portraits but this one spoke to me, it’s quite emotional.

I don't find it morbid at all, just honest! Great texture and colours!

I painted this self portrait after being dianosed with Lymphoma in 2016, it was going to be part of a tryptych but i only painted two in the end, deciding it was too morbid.
