    PS: to the above.

    The pixels bleed alot when storing these pics on the pc.

    Makes it abit wishy washy but you get the idea.

    I store them in Coral Draw.

    Good on you mate, glad things are starting to move in the right direction for you. Jees, mate, you're artistic, those drawings are great. The best I can do is stick figures.

    Good stuff, Robert.

    Thanks.

    Those sort of portraits are some of the many studies of a subject for portraits and figure study oil paintings.

    They look good framed and given as gifts.

    Below is an unfinished work from many years ago, might get around to finishing it.

    It's 36x24 inches.

    No, she was one of the many live models in my studio over the years.

    Lots of men women and kids past thru on commision works.

    Wives wanted portraits of husbands, husbands wanted figure studies of wives and couples wanted portraits of sons and figure studies of daughters.

    I loved working with the kids, once they over came their shyness and were comfortable they were a delight.
    The curiousity about everything and the conversations were quite stimulating..

    As you may recall both our kids died at an early age.

    Bloody hell .................... wish I had your talents Robert. They are brilliant.

    Glad to hear that you have got your eyes sorted and are able to continue with what you love doing (and are obviously very talented at).
    Cheers .........
