After seeing Peter's lovely charcoal portrait of Bob Dylan, I thought I would have a go. Did this from a recent photo in the local ark (as I'm rubbish at portraits)! If you haven't tried charcoal, it is a lovely expressive medium, much greater tonal range than a pencil and more like painting.

I am a self taught amateur painter, I mostly paint landscapes in watercolour but I 'dabble' in other mediums from time to time. I really enjoy my art, especially painting outdoors when the weather allows.
