New here




Hi, I am a newcomer here, I hope I do not break too many rules.(bad spelling)

I am a painting-teacher at the Academy of Arts in Leuven (Belgium). I am painting model for 28 years but did a lot of portraits.

I will post some here; I took a look on different topics and was impressed by what I saw here. In our country, figurative (classic) painting is not really appreciated. I can not even find a decent gallery for shows.

I post a portrait I did 4 years ago, it is oil on canvas and 30cm /40 cm

Philippe
