Paint what you love

Elvis

I am not sure if I have more time at the moment or just “different” time. During the first week of lockdown I ordered some paints and canvasses...something I do about every 10 years.
I thought ”what shall I try to paint this time?”, and remembered someone telling me long ago to paint what you love. After a couple of Peaky Blinders characters I went to my first real inspiration “Elvis”. Here’s how it ended up on an 18” by 24” canvas.

Thanks

Thanks Steve

This is the first time I have ever shown anything I have painted to anyone but close family and friends. I was inspired by the other contributors on the site to get out there, be proud of what they have achieved and open up for comments from others!

Thanks again
