Beautiful work, Margaret - it's so interesting how you are able to convey a feeling of intensity with such painterly brushstrokes. I feel as if I know this man.

Dear Margaret,
I find this to be a very intense, soulful, and psychological study. Everything that it is is in the eyes and they hold the viewers eyes with such power! Thanks for linking the higher resolution image, it is fascinating to look at.
Beautiful piece!

That's great Carlos.
I'll get him framed then, he's quite delicate as unfortunately he started as a scribble on some spare cartridge paper!

Margaret,
I love the overall tone of the colors you have chosen for Ian. His slight tilt forward adds drama and makes this a vey captivating image. Really lovely!

Thanks, Enzie.
I usually enjoy using bright colours, I toned this one down to 'earthiness' instead!
Think I'll try more with this palette
Margaret
