Momentarily Distracted

Comments

A good and sensitive portrait Ron (I like your choice of background too). I think the fact you have a hand tremor actually helps. any 'lack of detail' here really works for you.

I think you've done well despite your hand tremor (or perhaps with its help, as Heather suggests).

Thank you Heather & Robert. The tremor does get in the way sometimes, even using a mahl stick.

This is a super portrait.

It’s a lovely portrait.

It's a lovely portrait Ron.

A really good portrait Ron , clearly done with feeling. The hand trembling can be a ruddy nuisance at time, but it does have its uses, I think we learn to live and work with these frustrating issues.

This is excellent Ron. Sometimes details detract from the overall impression and I think you have accomplished a very fine portrait.

It's a fabulous portrait Ron

A top notch portrait Ron. An expressive face. (I know all about the shaky hand business...frustrating, isn't it? No sign of it here.)

Lovely portrait Ron

Oil (WMO) on panel, 40x50cm. Worked up from a pencil sketch and charcoal. Taken my time with this one and may still just look at it for a while before calling it finished. Really need to find a more expressive style to get around the problem of a hand tremor that prevents me doing detail.
