Portrait commission.

Have been busy doing a portrait commission of three brothers. I really don't like working from photographs if I can help it - so three sittings were arranged over a 5 day period.

 

I also had another bash at the Sky Arts portrait competition (after being encouraged by the production company to have another go) I didn't think I would get selected after already being on the programme; so for fun I did something completely different, influenced by Auerbach and Kossof... I wish the selected artists loads of luck.. the pressure is pretty horrendous!!
