Thanks for liking my work enough to keep watching I'm glad you do... After all what is art without spectators? And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it. Roald Dahl
I have great admiration for the portraits of Velasquez, Rembrandt, Manet, Schiele, Sutherland, and Lucien Freud. I think portraits must be, by definition, more or less figurative, but able to communicate other aspects of the sitter than merely their physical appearance at the time of sitting. In addition, a good portrait should, by its composition and scale, excite the viewer to whom the sitter may not be known. John Raynes
