TIMEOUT FOR NOSTALGY

Often I get asked if I do portraits. Much as I have produced some realism work from time to time I simply have to marvel at the cutting edge technology and the digital age of photography which I personally think can deliver far better results all round ...particularly for portraits. Left to my own creative representation, I am game and can rise to the challenge even if I do not consider portrait painting my forte.

"Nobody, Me, Myself and I" was my first attempt at a life sized (self)portrait using marker pen on paper for media . I unearthed an old photo of this painting featured here. The nostalgic bit is that I did this in 1983 as a pastime.
