Hello Jim,

Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. I appreciate your thoughts. Coming from an “Ex teacher”, that means a lot. You mention two hours, but your right, you can’t discount the years of work that lead to those two ours. Time has allowed me distill down the process for quicker results. You stay safe as well, and thanks again! – Scott

As a long retired behavioural( English!) ecologist I absolutely sympathise(sic!) with your approach to painting and involving hands in portraiture and as an ex teacher I totally agree that when concentration, time or motivation are in short supply then small achievable tasks are the best way to get back in.However, since you are the professional, I would add that what you can achieve in a couple of hours is several thousand per cent more than I could possibly achieve as an amateur in a week or so! Thanks for your comments and I look forward to exploring your work in much more detail. Stay safe and all power to your elbow – if that isn’t too anatomical! Best wishes, Jim Berreen(UK).
