Nice portraits, @Rob MacKillop! #2 is my favourite for the naturalness of expression.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Gianluca. As you might imagine, she does not like having her photograph taken, but she said these were "not bad', which is the highest praise I've ever heard from her

The final shot Rob cuts a Vogue cover vibe, something about all these conveys an impression of your daughters character to me, and that's what makes a portrait in my world.

I don't recall you posting these before, Rob and it is nice seeing them all together. Quite different, but all good. Are you sure these aren't still from a Michelangelo Antonioni film?!

How is she getting on? Are her various studies complete?

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

A fine series of a loved one. I can't say I have seen them before either. But there was a time when I sure was shortsighted. Now senility has set in.

Cheers, Wes - she’d love the idea of being on the cover of Vogue, but these days prefers to work quietly behind the scenes. She has a Masters Degree in Textiles, and works in a variety of posts with different companies.

Cheers, Pete - Antonioni is another in a long and growing list of artists who pre-ripped me off! She’s doing fine work-wise, but misses Scotland. And living in London is hard. So, she has some decisions to make in a couple of years when she reaches 30. Good luck to her!

Cheers, Ivar - I think I’d shared two of them before, but some years ago.

while i completely understand her aversion to being in the photo, these are very well done.

 

[Brian Moore]

Pete nailed it with his comment about Antonioni. Excellent series.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

He always does.
