This represents something of a triumph for me. I have managed to produce something approaching a likeness of Nicole Kidman! I don’t know why but I seem to struggle with beautiful women – I just don’t seem to be able to make the leap from sort of like to passable likeness. Kidman is someone I have been working on, off and on, for months and finally I appear to have started to get the feel for the face. It has been a struggle – who said artists have it easy!
