It’s Poortrait Time!

As I’m having such a good time using my digital oil painting program, I thought it was about time I did another poortrait.

Now, long time visitors know that I’m hopeless at portraits, but I like to have a go every now and then. They tend to turn out more like caricatures than portraits, but I don’t mind that. And as stars go, this one is way up there! Oops – don’t want to give the game away just yet!

The question, as always, is just who is this poortrait meant to be of? Hazard a guess and leave who you think it is in the comments.

I will let slip the true identity in about a week’s time. As usual, I will not be offended by any incorrect guesses.

      Moonee Ponds? Is that where she’s from, Raili? She must have mentioned it at some point, but I don’t recall it!
      If it is Dame Edna, I hasten to add…

          I’ve been talking (well writing!) about Google this morning, Raili, and even that didn’t trigger the thought of actually using it! 😀 Sigh.

    Ha!!! BRILLIANT Tom! Well done you clever chap.
    It’s as if she’s here in the room, possum!
    You should send her that, via her agent. She’d love it.
