One of the largest portraits I have done, and I have painted some large figure pieces in the past. This focuses on the face of my model (a painting once called, 'The Artist's Model') and involves copious amounts of layered oil paint applied in swirls and slashes and even squirts of what is called 'local colour' direct from the tube. This has never been exhibited, though gawped at by several people, and some pieces of art are not really made for public consumption. Needless to say, I have allowed it to live a little here on this site... but if you think the picture looks good, you wanna see the real thing!
