A very potent image … both beautifully captivating and with a tension to it. I so admire your abilities and your creativity
Nicholas Johnston replied
Mklau, once again you’ve said such positive and encouraging things. Many thanks.

wow, excellent painting, love the expressive face hidden behind layers, and the dripping paint. haunting was the first word springing to my mind too. you say you don’t call yourself an artist, this painting I think would defend its place in any gallery.

Excellent work. Great colors. I love the eyes and the brow.
I agree with Butchart, it is haunting.

The ghostly outline is amazing. Reminds me of a man shedding his wolf’s clothing.
Nicholas Johnston replied
I like that description Milisa, many thanks.

How best to capture a person – a moment, a picture, a symbol, a character? I’m inclined to think it’s easier for us to associate, to connect, when there remains a certain ambiguity. Your works have that by the bucket, and I love it. There’s an Australian artist named Godwin Bradbeer who you might like… don’t think he’s a bubbler.
