Re: Trying a portrait

I agree Tiff, that one is well worth a frame and a place on the wall...

Re: Trying a portrait

Another good one Muddy!
I think it would be lovely if you could do pictures of all your family & frame them. You may not believe they are worth a fortune, but they would be tremendous treasures for future members of your family.
Who knows one of them may inherit your talents & develop a desire to become an artist.

I know you enjoy a good debate, but your artistic talent will still be with your family forever!

Re: Trying a portrait

Thanks Twink I might give it to my husbands daughter if she wants it she thinks it is a good likeness .
My children are artistic but in a different way they have a good eye in practical things .

Re: Trying a portrait

I am sure they all have talents but I feel that a portrait, that Mum did, would also be an emotional gift that could be passed down through the family.
I still have a doll that my dad bought for me when I was nearly 4 & I have never allowed anybody to touch it since he died in 1976.

The poor bloke's going to be terrified of taking a nap in future.

Re: Trying a portrait

We both usually fall asleep at the same time ( on different sofas ) this was just a one off

Re: Trying a portrait

So, for all you know, Mr. M could be posting portraits of you, taking a nap, on some other forum?
