I was rummaging through some stuff at home recently and I found these three
paintings I did for my art portfolio back in '85.

Blimey, I must've been a right moody teenager with all that black.

They're beautiful Tuumble!

Hey, Tuumble, you're a man of many talents! I'm like those very much.

Tuumble · 06-20-2007, 10:38 PM

Thank you! That means a lot!

For the record the pictures are of:

1. The face of a 19th century statue which, when painting the beard, I tried to create the effect of 'dripping' whiskers. Can't really tell on this image but I think it works pretty well.
2. Peter Gill - Drummer of 80s band Frankie Goes To Hollywood
3. Claudia Brucken - Singer in German band Propaganda

We should perhaps start a creativity thread for us all to post our talents be it craft, painting or even cooking. Could be fun!

Wow very good!!

who is the middle person?

Why didn't you put this stuff on the revealing myself thread....(would have stopped in degenrating)

We now can see what a talented artist you are.

The first one is quite haunting......

And all three are amazing.

The last one......what made you paint her......

I had a wee crush on Lena Zavaroni myself at the time, in the early eighties!!!

Gordon,

Claudia just had a really interesting look. She has an unusual face that's very striking.

Not sure there's many that would use a cigarette in a pop promo photo now but again it's still a very strong image.
