marleft 0 Posted February 16, 2009 Excellent portrait Dimitri Especially when reviewing it larger. This is one of the most difficult ways of making portraits, because Magar is looking directly to the lens, his face is completely flat, and no back or side, strong lighting is used, to give some 3D sense to the composition. Nevertheless, as his eyes transfer a strong penetrating and very clear look to the viewer, this portrait goes far behind the imaging of a face and reveals a great back story of Magar's life.. Great portrait Dimitri ! Regards, Marios Link to comment
dgv 1 Posted February 16, 2009 Thank you dear friends for your wonderful comments. There is an interesting back story to Magar’s life, as Marios mentioned. Magar is a renowned artist and the foremost printer of etchings in the UK. He also prints the etchings since 85 for Lucian Freud. I am particularly honoured that he chose this portrait for his web site and anybody who is interested can have a look at some of his work there. www.marcbalakjian.com Link to comment
