This is interesting!

Interesting description Jim. I like the portrait, a lot of character in that face. You chose Politician for the title...his mouth seems firmly shut...so maybe not a politician?

I like this Jim and have to say that he looks shifty enough!

Good one Jim. His face, almost bland, typifies many a politician. They promise the world but don’t often mean a word they say.

It's either a politician or Sir Les Patterson, hard to tell the difference. Nice one Jim.

I think this is a great piece of work Jim, portraits are sooo difficult! Love the palette of colours. Best wishes for your birthday, hope you have a special day ( cake and all that stuff!) xx
