It boggles my mind how you can paint so realistically! Merlin's face is perfect to a T in this. And that fond smile he is giving is beautiful. ♥♥♥ I love the composition and how Arthur's face is bending into his touch. And all those little details like his tousled hair and his chainmail (man, that's gotta be time-consuming to paint) really add to the painting. Could I just rave on how amazing this is forever? Probably.
You are very sweet. Thank you so much for such a lovely comment. Actually the chain mail didn't take HALF as long as it looks like, (which is just what you want in a painting. *LOL*)
(The hand is a bit crap unfortunately, ...but I couldn't find a reference photo of one in the right position and I just had to wing it. It didn't really work unfortunately. Now if I was a "proper" painter then I could afford to have a model to pose in the right postition.) (I have a son, but he was feeling grumpy this morning and refused to let me take a photo of his hand. *G*)
