Project 2015-09-05 20:46:14 +1200

Help Rif Get Glasses,

I'm a New Zealand artist and most of my work is painting portraits (but sometimes I'll do other things like sculpture.)
And I need your help buying Glasses so I can see to keep painting
I need both reading glasses (which I guess translates as painting glasses) and all the rest of the time glasses (so I can see the subject so I can paint them).

About Me:
A kiwi artist, I've been painting longer than I care to admit

Why do I paint people?:-

well quite simply because for me I cant think of anything more interesting,
we've all spent our lives looking at people, we all know how people look,
and I try to capture the variety of people, the multiple uniqueness of faces and people


What are my future plans?:-

More of the same, every time trying to be better than the last
a famous cello player was being interviewed because it was his 90th birthday
he was asked "why at 90 do you still practice every day?"
his reply "Because I think I'm making progress,"
so yeah I plan to keep trying to make each painting better than the last.
