Incredible, Paul


The detail is fantastic, and highly emotive, showcasing the subject matter with a love and devotion to art, that weaves your magic with breathtaking skill!


You're right, however...children should not cry.

Thanks - as always for the great support, glad you like this one - again, simple but emotional and effective - shows that pictures dont always have to be immensely detailed or complex to be liked

I actually enjoy coming across work that holds little detail, and yet is filled with such powerful energy

Paul-Shanghai In reply to ColourPortrait [2013-10-12 00:15:47 +0000 UTC]

I guess that was the focal (ignore the pun) point of the drawing, the idea that the eye was full of tears, water flowing from it etc. glad that you noticed it - makes it worthwhile
