Bravely i looked deep

Into his untamable heart

And saw myself at home

In the jungles of his soul.

Love the sense of Majesty, yet there is an aloneness about it!  Very emotional painting,  for me anyway.  I really like it!

Fabulous, as usual!! I am trying to "punch up" my lackluster WC. I realize lighting is the key. Do you alter the lighting in your ref photo - all of the ones I take seem so flat!!

Thanks for the comments Joy,I normally disregard the ref.colours and put in my own,this way you can achieve as much light and shade as you wish.

 Best from mike.
