I went through a few weeks of inviting friends over to fall asleep on my sofa to be painted. In return I would cook them dinner. This is one of them. Jack. Oil on board. A5 size. 2014. £75.

Annie, the second of my 'come-to-my-house-fall-asleep-on-my-sofa portraits. Oil on canvas. A5. £75.

Painted at Leith School of Art, at the end of the Figurative Art course there, led by Alan McGowan. I wondered how to represent the artist and the model in me. A nude self portrait seemed logical. The defiant and appraising expression was inadvertent. NFS. Pretty big, maybe A1 or a bit bigger.
Over an afternoon, we created this. It looks just like her, that is to say, it looks just like her. 2016. NFS. Oil on board, A4-ish.
