This is a drawing I did of the British actress, Samantha Morton, a few years ago. It was taken from the movie Morvern Callar. I've always had this one hanging in my apartment. Though the image quality isn't great, the overall idea comes through.

There's something very introspective and dramatic about her applying eyeliner in the mirror. It was shaded in a very realistic way, and folks always comment on the nose.

I've sort of lost interest in this very realistic style of art, but feel very good about this drawing.

Ok I'll bite. I thought this was a self-portrait when I first met you. Then I found out it was only Samantha Morton. I still like it though. Very mysterious.

I love this, and still love all your realistic art.
And hey - what's up with all this blogging when poor Weezine is fading away all on its own?
Poor little weezine . . . so, so sad . . .

Franklin and I might be in Chicago for a couple of days in August or September. Send me an email Teah_Chadderdon@hotmail.com, I would love to hear from you, and possibly see you this summer.

You draw us is. I sense the vibes within this image. I also see the depth of the eyes as reflecting a kind of enigma. Maybe we're each a kind of mystery just waiting for self-discovery? People discover us based on our own emotional and personality projections yet, we can also uncover a lot ourselves.
