Description
Acrylic on canvas, 60 x 70cm, 2017At the end of 2016 I was struck by how many famous faces had sadly passed away during the year. I decided to paint this homage of six portraits - just some of the many who passed - the six are from left to right. Top row:-
David Bowie, Mohamed Ali, Andrew Sachs (Fawlty Towers)
Bottom row:-
Prince, Peter Vaughan, (Game of Thrones) and John Glenn.

Been busy with lots of personal stuff to sort out CJ. I hope to post soon as I am midway through a painting at the moment but haven't touched it for a few weeks as per the stuff to sort out. How are you doing CJ, any paintings in the pipeline?

Hi Vinny,
yerth (Duffy Duck again) I have several big oneths, two are finished and two are in the making, and two are lost somewhere (seriously)
I have to figure out how to photograph them. I might try in the shade outdoors like Markus suggested.

Why thanks again CJ, although I'm not too sure about education I'm still learning myself. I guess that's painting you never stop learning but it's good to have a scientific view on my work LOL!
