ah completely misinterpreted this comment before, sorry! It seems somewhat obvious now. What I meant to say was "thank you"! And initially I was trying to replicate the movie images, but as the series progressed, my efforts were directed at bringing out the character of each figure - for this is was dignity/pride, loyalty, regency and I suppose in a way female power.

Don't worry. It was my fault.

Thats fine, I just read it in the wrong way! Thank you for your kind words, You've expressed yourself very well in this comment, so I'm sure your English is great, and I commend you on being multilingual! I had a bit of practice painting wrinkles in my Dobby Painting - I still have a lot to learn about them though! [link]

I wish it were great but it is a long way ahead of me, nevertheless thank you for your nice opinion
I think that your ability to paint wrinkles is almost perfect, so keep up the good work!

Thank you so much, Viride! I love realism, but I also love brushstrokes, so hopefully not too much like a photo! Thank you very much for your lovely comment, and I wish you all the best with your own art!

My favourite Hogwarts teacher!

Thank you very much! She's mine as well - and I completely agree, they couldn't have brought a better actress to the role. She has such dignity and grace. Thank you very much for your lovely compliments, I hope you like my other work too! (I have a Harry Potter exhibition coming up if you are a fan!)

Thanks Jaz, she's one of my favourite teachers too! I don't usually use green, so I quite enjoyed working on this!

Green is an excellent colour, don't neglect it, embrace it

too true! I dyed my hair black the other week, and it's opened a whole new realm of colours for my wardrobe, green being one of them!
