    Fantastic portraiture madworld!! I like the way you have captured his lips – The softness and tones, wow!! I bet he was sick of smoking by the end of this!! This would be great WITHOUT the ciggie too!! Spoken just like an exsmoker, aye?!!! LOL!!

  • madworld replied 7 days ago

    thanks vicki, that day like many others just for me, he nearly smoked himself to death, no wonder hes given it a rest lol lol.

  • Vicki Ferrari

    Vicki Ferrari 9 days ago

    Oops, I wrote this from below the image, not from down here!!! I hope he doesn’t take it back up – it is the hardest thing I ever had to do – and the moods…. not worth mentioning!! Especially mixed with menopause – not pretty!!! But, I didn’t kill anyone, as tempted as I was!! And the three months stage is a very difficult one! and even two and half years later, I sometimes catch myself thinking, mmm…. a ciggie would be nice!! But no… then I remember how many times and how difficult it was!! Be nice to your friend!! LOL!! It will give you better skin tones to work with!!! :)))

  • madworld replied 7 days ago

    Im hoping he does take it back up, purely for selfish reasons of course lol. I tried, menopause beat me though and I was unbearable, well according to some :P. I am nice to him hehhehe. Have to be, I live with him!!
