I started this portrat several months ago, and the thing is, I really like it, except for the kneck and shoulder, and maybe the jaw line, however try as i might I can't seem to get it 'just' right,

 

It has been languishing for some time now, but I keep looking at it, and I will finish it one day!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is the piece I am working on right now, and I really quite like it, this has been a huge exercise in blending and tonality, and I keep finding ways to make the paint 'work'.

She still needs a fair bit of work, but will be finished soon, except - I can't really decide on a background! It was originally going to be Black, but with this I'm not so sure.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I like the sunny feel of this picture, still in it's 'first' phase. Again not sure of the background.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is a larger painting, I am doing for my Living room wall, it's blue to fit the colour scheme, but since thats what I'm doing it for, it just seems to sit there doing nothing much!
