THE PORTUGUESE FADO-PORTRAITS

            The Male Figure

I prefer creating my paintings from live models.

HOWEVER: I also can find inspiration in photos

and create something very different and new out of them.

My male-paintings can be

portraits head to waist,

or full length body .

Nude or semi-nude .

People often confuse nudity with sex.

I don`t paint porn!

Some of my paintings can be seen as erotic ,

but are almost never seen as sexual.

​

Ask for possibilities if you would want your personal portrait .

I can also work from your own photos , 

preferrence in taking the photos myself, if possible.

You`ll find my prizes quite decent. 

​

Remember if you order a painting

prizes are made up by several facts:

​

 SIZE ,  AMOUNT OF DETAILING ( = hours of work ) ,

  CHOICE OF MATERIALS ,

 eventually postage.
