Comfortable and relaxed to go with a plate from my childhood.

Although I don’t particularly like the effect of having more than one portrait on a plate as you can’t look at one without being aware of the others.

I’ve not painted with oil for about a year. 
Not hugely pleased but not repulsed by it either. I think it looks like me but still doesn’t hugely capture me. I have a lot of work to do and I still very much prefer watercolour so we shall see.
