Those are awesome! What program do you use to make your patterns? Maybe one of these days I'll try some of the Red Wings...

Default Some Excellent Work

You have done a wonderful job capturing details that are often overlooked. Your portraits are some of the best I've seen, especially since they are NEW.


For those who will take a look after my post here, take a close look at the eyes on #27, (sorry I forgot the name) and the detail in the eyes and ears of Les's portraits. No needless lines, the lines that are there serve to define the image.

Regardless of the software program you use, you have a definate eye for the portraits. Big smiles, VERY well done!

Take care
Toni

Hi Les

I agree with Toni. Your portraits capture the essential features of your subjects and in doing so they give an insight into the soul. They reach a standard that's rarely seen.
