Great portraits. Did you use photographs for each of them?
If so, how did you go about resizing them to your actual portrait size. That is what I am trying to do and tried using a grid using an A4 copy in either color or black and white but am not happy with the results.
Thanks Nan Holzberger

Great to view your amazing work… Look forward to seeing your work on the street where these artists lived and played…. Great for the kids to see there more to life with living artists changing those horrid walls of FLATS… look forward to seeing more…
