Is this a self-portrait?

I did visit your website and found the work to be consistent with the painting of Brian in its handling of light and dark and its old master quality. It's beautiful - brava! It did take a very long time to load on my 31200 baud telephone connection, but I saw that once loaded all the images were available immediately. An interesting way of presenting a website.

Portrait of Harry

Here is a larger close up and an example of another portrait. Not sure if the photo quality is as good as with the first painting (I have recently found a better photographer!) As always would love any comments/criticisms. Thanks

Yes it is a self portrait. Sorry it took so long for you to load my website. Apparently one really needs broadband, but even so I have had more than a few complaints about the time it takes.

It was designed by a chap here in Sweden, I am quite pleased though would like the option to enlarge some of the images.

Once again, thanks for the interest you have shown in my painting.

Amanda
