Description Based upon a photograph in a newspaper of children in Afganistan

Acyrlic on paper.

Not technically perfect, and there are things about it that I don't like but it is meant to be quite a loose style rather than perfection.

Excellent - the style and subject mesh well together. I think it would have lost a little something if you'd try to be too "portraity", if you know what I mean. Very nicely done.

Thanks very much - I have been looking at this image for about 2 months trying decide which was the best way to tackle it.

I think the style portrays the sadness and anger you must havefelt when you saw the photograph of the children!

Thanks very much - it is good to not concentrate too much the technical aspects and to just let it flow.

I think so....sometimes technicalities can take over and spoil the spontaneity!
