Happy New Year.... 2012

Hello folks,

Well its been a while.. unfortunately my real life job has a habit of taking over and I don't get to do any art stuff.  Well I have just had 2 weeks of over the Christmas break and managed to lift a brush on a couple of occasions.

I am still going through my portrait phase.,  I just love doing portraits.  Debbie-Lee says I should paint directly out of my head because I have a vivid imagination, but I can't seem to get past this desire to paint the perfect portrait, and I'm damned if I give up until I do... smart huh!!!! Not.

What I did do was finish the portrait of Rocky Elsom.  His mom saw it and seemed OK with it so it must look something like Rocky.. here is the finished article.  Pardon the crappy iPhone photo.. I plan to redo it tomorrow in the sunshine with a decent camera



Working on some other portraits.. will blog them later
cheers for now
Pete
