Description Unexpected, unlikely and unreal. A spark that leads somewhere unknown.

Another one of those spontaneous portraits straight out of my mind. No reference except my own memory which might make this portrait more like my imagination of this person. A person I met under such strange circumstances that it doesn't even feel real.

Either my habit of painting people I hardly know is a good thing, or just creepy. In any case, this image had to be painted and to you, my source of inspiration, if you see this: I hope you don't mind. You just sparked my creativity.

I've had this in my favorites folder for a while and I've just rediscovered it. I commend you for the sense of mystery that this piece evokes when viewed, I very much like it, I actually created a separate favorites folder evoking this same feeling and have used this piece as the template to judge other artwork of its type.

this is very powerful and enchanting it makes me want to write a story based on it
ok, anyhow, now i might sound like a total bitch, but i think the portait would look event better if you added
touches of warm yellowish light on his face and maybe on his hair. That should make the effect much stronger

I'm really fascinated by that picture.
I can't prevent myselff from looking into his eyes and searching for... I don't know what exactly ^^
I also can't prevent myself from imagining his story and background.
Great, great work !

Have I mentioned before how much I love the darkness and fantasy in your work. Because I feel that I have but I can't seem to stop myself from repeating it. I love this piece a lot.
