I flew to London to meet Fergus and Hamish, the subjects for two charcoal portraits. This one is just finished(I think !)continuing from the 2 hour sitting,I have refined the likeness and modelling,with a sable brush,putty eraser and vine charcoal.
The painting measures 15 x 18" .The view is in Place du verdun, just a two minute walk.It faces the sunset.I tried to capture the moment when the light was quickly changing from yellow to orange.
