Guess by Nathan Jelbert

This looks like a pretty good likeness to me Nathan. Ian McShane.

I really like the tones that you've used in this painting - suits his personality - and I would be very pleased if I was you.

I recognised him. You certainly captured a good likeness.

It's a good likeness Nathan, and nicely done, merry Christmas 🎄

McShane - I know the problems with capturing a likeness: you think you have, you go away, come back and take another look - and don't recognize your subject at all. But I knew this was Ian McShane as soon as I saw it, so your efforts have been crowned by success! One of those faces you could call "lived in".

A very lived in face and I recognised him immediately Nathan.

Lovejoy!

I instantly recognised him, so it's a good portrait.

Ian McShane, I recognised him straight away. A really good portrait Nathan.

Thank you everyone. I appreciate all your comments 😊
