A face drawn with brush by Michael Hanrahan

And very nicely drawn, too, Michael!

I like canvas too but mostly use Belle Arte linen canvas board which I can heartily recommend. This painting has a lovely quality to it.

I used oil paint to do this on a piece of canvas I cut from a roll I bought just yesterday and from now on I think I'll use this type of unstretched canvas. If it had been stretched it might have cost me alot indeed but for 11 pound it's ideal really and the quality is good I think though I'm no expert on canvas as a material. It has a different feel under my brush and I prefer it.

About the Artist
Michael Hanrahan

I love art but it's very much up and down as I go about my day to day life as a painter and often I really struggle to paint therefore I fall out with it.
