Today is a good day for websites but a bad day for Portraits. Some days it is just not possible to capture a single face. It's a rare day for me but the wonderful angus@angus.co.uk has worked miracles on my www.bingjones.co.uk site so you can see many new faces there. Figures and landscapes too. Happy New Year!

Hello


Hello there!

I'm a Portrait Painter who thinks of things from time to time and thought I'd have a go at a Blog. Painting is a hard job if you do it in a representational way but it is an enomous joy to be able to capture at least something of a human face. In the process of living my life and getting round to painting, I think a thought or two about life, painting, people, and the other things I do besides.
I hope to offer a bit of philosophy in a rough sort of way and a sort of hair shirt cyclist enjoyment of life, if I can.
