Andrew 14" x 18" Oil


I re-visited a favourite photo of my youngest son, taken when he was about three, I think.
I cannot remember what he has in his hands, but I love the look of delight on his face.
needs some tiddling, especially the hands.


A reminder of my first attempt, done in pastel and smaller, and by the date on there, 22 years ago!
It was one of my first ever paintings.

I agree with Celeste wonderful pose, both versions are terrific. I like your work. I'm working to do work of equal substance. Very impressive. I'm coming aboard.

Your portraits are amazing. The pose does make a charming picture as he looks at wonderment at his treasure. Sure to be a lovely painting soon.
