Description
This uses the stock of the excellent [link]I have had my eyes on using this one for a couple of weeks but was going to do it in pastel (and still might).

I am very pleased with how this went as I thought it might be beyond me and also wasn't sure the idea of the spilting the canvas in half would work.
2 weeks ago I set myself the goal of being able to paint as well as I can do soft pastel by next Easter. Unfortunately I am going to have to set myself a new goal very soon as this is about 85% there and also very close to the style I want to paint in. I thought my progress with pastels was quick but this has astounded me!!!!
I am also surprised to admit that my hating painted has turned into loving it!!!! It takes a lot more work to get what you want by constantly adjusting things but I like the way it comes together.
As always your comments are appreciated.

Wow.. i'm impressed, i didn't expect you to be a painter, your art is really good, the things you try to expres and emphasise through your pictures. I also have a passion for portraiture, and i see you got it too, maybe thats why I like your art much.

Thnaks very much for such a great comment. Yes I love portraits especially ones that seem to have a rawness of edge. And I love photography too. Sometimes a photograph can acheive things that seem impossible to get from a painting.

I really enjoy this, the fascist connotations of the red-black-white color scheme and the split design make a very thought-provoking combo. Speaks a lot about the human, really. I don't typically think this much when encountering art. Congratulations for that!
Keep enjoying painting.
