Fascinating videos and website!
It's interesting to see these paintings,having been watching the series "School of Saatchi" on BBC2,I think I prefer the Rembrandt!
 
Wow and i was wondering what to ask father christmas for,do you think that would
be okay
 
One wonders if he was short of a bob or two for models; or was he just self-obsessed? Either way, his work is incredible - such honesty and depth...he doesn't spare himself as he grows older. Marvellous; thanks again!

Thanks for posting Brumgum :) Absolutely amazing..His eyes and facial features have such depth and expression, amazing. They look more like photographs than paintings. What a talent some of these artists had :):) Thanks again..
