Bob Dylan

Hey guys here is my latest painting of Bob Dylan this is my 4th one to do of him. Sebastian Kruger did a painting of Dylan using a similar reference photo and when I was doing this piece I had Kruger's painting opened which really helped me on this painting it kinda motivated me to make it as good as possible and I also used the picture of his painting as a reference even though his is a caricature it was still very helpful. As usual any comments would be appreciated

Why Is She Crying

Here is my latest painting, a little different from my portraits but I really enjoyed doing this one it was interesting working with the areas in focus and the areas out of focus and putting together the complete painting, any comments or critiques would be appreciated as usual, thanks!

Aston Villa Richard Dunne

This is my first painting since my exhibition finished, it's of Aston Villa and Ireland central defender, Richard Dunne. This was a commisioned painting from a huge villa fan.
