I find your work totally compelling. I feel deeply moved by your depiction of 'unrequited love', the eyes are amazing, raw and intimate, soulful. I'm blown away! Your art feels so brave, the colours, lines etc my attempts feel very conservative in comparison. I would love to know more of how you visualise and create an image. Have you done or would you consider doing a tutorial on u-tube? The videos you've posted are great but I'm after a step by step thing. What are your thoughts? Also have you ever thought of producing a book? I'm not an artist but have just completed a diploma in art therapy and I'm so interested in how you depict such raw emotion. Look forward to hearing from you. Hi Michael

Good luck with your artistic pursuits! ~Michael Thanks puzzled…! :)
