A very interesting piece and a nice one too...

this really caught my eye, I do like it

Very characterful face, beautifully done.

Brilliant. Love your paint handling and boldness. Really eye catching portrait and lovely the way all the blue wild hair and background focuses you in on the face.

He's a supertramp!

I agree with the above comments: this is a beautiful watercolour. As Carole says: a very characterful face!!

Super handling of paint, and you have a lovely style.

Fresh and vibrant and full of character. It's a great piece.

I agre with everyone, great style

Stunning portrait - agree with all.

Agree with everyone - stunning portrait!

A very beautiful portrait. Full of character. Did he sit for you Roger? And who is he? It would be interesting to hear a story behind this very interesting face. For some strange reason I thought of Poseydon when I looked at it. Kind regards Olga

Hi Olga. It was painted from a photograph but I cant think in the life in me where I got the photo from but it must haver been somewhere on the internet because I've no photo like this at home...

I love the "controlled" freedom of your technique. Superb results
