Wonderful painting, your friend looks like a nervous chap.
Hi Jim!! Yes indeed – it was a tense and agoraphobic stage for him back in those days… :(
Chris, you’re amazing, abolutely fantastic! ;D
The amount of colors and emotion you put into this piece is just incredible. I think your friend will be very surprised, you must tell him! :)
Thanks Ming – most kind of you :)
I shall of course be letting him know, and he was already aware tht I was going to paint this some time ago… ;) cheers!
Superb Chris, brilliant capture of anticipation
Thanks Josh – well spotted :) Just about sums up the mood here ;)
This is so Beautiful and Sensitive… You’ve captured the fear and wonder perfectly… Very Childlike…Yet Intense…

Wow..great piece. You’ve captured lots of emotions here. Kind of Mona Lisa-esque in that respect.
