    this is utterley amazing… you have a gift for portraiture… and the colour tomes really suite her… Did you take this from a photo or your mind?

    Hi Kathleen, I wish I could say I had a flash of inspiration and applied this colour pallette to her tonal features, but no I can not take that credit. I found an amazing image of her which was very graphic in style but illustrative also and tried to represent the quality that it captured as well as portraying my own style. I’m glad you like it, I still need to re-photograph it though to try and get the resoultion high enough for the site to allow small prints, canvas’s etc… by the way thanks for your advice in the journal I will respond to this also.
    Cheers again.

    Just could not leave RB just yet, so I did a search for addiction, and there you are. What a somewhat hauntingly, but beatiful image! Darrell But now I must go

    I’ve changed this image around with different versions in the past, I’ve settled on this version of her, so I apologise if i’ve confused anyone with a changing image.
