Worked on another portrait, meant it to fit in with the current series so did an ink drawing first which is below:



Tried some experimental stuff that didn't work, so painted over it, got to this point and was thinking I was done with it (for some strange reason as it's really just awful):



Worked on a more traditional style of painting to try and get it to a different level. This meant a lot of blending with a very small brush. While this photo isn't very good, it does work as a decent contrast between the midway photo. This is the final version, acrylic on panel, 16x20:



Next, I have to get back to Tamino, that poor cat...

cocky fellow....
as usual very well done. You always make me feel guilty I haven't done any pen and ink drawing in a few years!

The person in question is very cocky indeed! Thanks. :"D As for pen and ink, perhaps it's just because you're doing so much else in other media. This just happens to be where my head is at right now, that's all. :"D
