This is a really old painting I did in my first few weeks at art school, many moons ago. I really like it though. Painting was a pretty new discipline for me and I did it from a black and white photo of Bertrand Russell, fairly quickly and spontaneously.
It's so long since I've done any painting or drawing. I really want to get back into it, but it takes committment and I know I would have to do at least 10-15 crap drawings before I got a decent one I didn't hate - and I'm too much of a perfectionist and too impatient to go through that process.
Maybe when I have babies, I will spend my afternoons painting and drawing again, that would be really nice.
This is a life drawing I did a few years back as well. Rubbish resolution but you get the idea. Again it came out quite spontaneously without me thinking about it too much. I love when it happens like that.

Your work is beautiful. I think you've improved over the years, based on the last two works.
Hi, your paintings are great!
Irene here,
My word you are really really talented! I love the Bertrand piece. So real. And you know, I have a weakness for hooked noses...
