Thanks, M_D. As mentioned earlier, it's gouache over watercolour on the face which looks a bit chalkier than it really is on camera. The background is watercolour which is more transparent. The spotlights represent the three primary colours in gouache. I should have made the hair taller on top of the head as it's only just about in proportion and KB used to have it fluffed up as I remember. I can still rectify that on the original. It's usually when you take a critical, detached look afterwards that you notice these things.

Nice effort, Joe.
I'm not normally one for modern art, but I like the directness and simplicity. It says to me....something always goes before..and something always goes after ...sort of sums up human life.. |

![]() Thanks for your kind comments. The extra hair was added electronically using "Paint" but I'm going to add some for real when I can get around to refilling my water pot with clean water. |

So you have made the jump into the 21st century with this, your NEO-SYNTHETIC plasticization...dare we call it...art...??

Hi Vel, you mentioned Liotard on the Jesus thread yesterday.
I agree with you that he was an excellent pastel artist, possibly the best technically. The nature of his work, though, portrait commissions from Nobility and the mega-rich, meant that his work lacks originality and new ways of looking at things. I haven't actually seen any of his paintings in galleries as far as I know, are they mainly in private collections? |
