2025 in Perth….self portrait ….

Apart from a stroll around the retail park while Katy was busy spinning at the gym I’ve been home most of the day.

I thought it might be an idea to draw a self portrait using charcoal.

I have a small mirror on a stand and it was good to test out my new box easel.

Reasonably comfortable  set up.
It wasn’t that easy….never is….but without glasses it was difficult to see details. Wonder if it will be very different next time I try. However I’m quite pleased with this.

It’s difficult  to concentrate right now.

I found some photos of the first mural I painted all by myself. 

It was to be painted on a corrugated garden shed
Although it was March it was quite hot work.
It took about 3 weeks
Finished.

I was very proud of it.

Wine time now. And the weekend!!

Cheers🍷🍷
