Soldier Portrait


Hi there Loyal Reader! How have you been? Good? Oh, really? That's crazy... Please tell me more about that thing that you just said. We have so much to talk about. Would you like a cup of tea?

And with that catch up out of the way I think we can carry on, like before. I promise never to leave you again.

In the last few months I've been mostly painting men and dogs, separately:








The above painting was commissioned as a birthday present for the soldier featured by his wife. She was kind enough to provide some of the nicest feedback I've had in a while:

"Dear Luke

I wanted to say a very big thank you for the painting. It's really an amazing and stunning piece of work. My husband really liked it! There's been so many positive comments, and we've had friends and family saying how alike the painting is to the picture and mandeep himself! One friend had such positive comments about the shading and facial tones.

My family have also been very impressed with your work, and it seems that they might also request a painting in the near future. I'll let you know when they decide.

Thank you for all your work, and I just wanted to share the wonderful comments that your work has received.

Have a lovely weekend ahead!"
