Portrait studies

Ist week back at work after Christmas, try to soften the blow (if I have to travel in to London) with a couple gallery visits also conscious of the fact that both the exhibitions end this month, Facing the Modern The Portrait in Vienna 1900 and Daumier visions of  Paris. 

Friday night visit to Facing the Modern was just the right inspiration I need to make the most of my watercolours over the weekend. Seeing the portraits done by Egon Schiele and Oskar Kokoschka, although done in oils, I felt had quality that you would get from watercolours.
