He's George the 4th

 

... Which means he was just standing in, acting King because his dad, George the 3rd had gone barking mad. He loved more girls than he ate pies, but he couldn't stand his wife. 

Ok, I love this song so much! I really wan to to perform it on stage one day.

Do the Pachacuti

Pachacuti

It's 29 Faces time and I'm so excited. This time I have a very special theme... Horrible Histories. I have recently been watching the series and I'm utterly in love with it. The acting is hilarious and the costumes are just fantastic. And the songs...Don't get me started. I'm learning them all of by heart. So I just had to start with Pachacuti, the Incan lord whom other tribes dreaded. When it came to claiming nearby land, he was the one to risk it, but it's how he treated dead enemies that really took the biscuit. I have also added the link to his song... be warned... it will get stuck in your head. 😃

A Thorne in my side

 

Thomas Thorne

I have now watched BBC's Ghosts. And in the words of OK Go 'It's not passing fascination now,

It's obsession'. 

Here's a painting of dead, romantic poet Thomas Thorne. I just love the way he mooches around in a perpetual state of melancholic pining, looking like he's moments away from a dramatic break-down.

When you see my faces...

Once again I took some time to participate in the 29 Faces challenge. Paint 29 faces during the month of September. I don't think I have ever managed 29 faces in the years I have taken part in the challenge, but it does get me painting. So here are the ones I did this time around.

I have been asked on several occasions why I only paint men. Not something I ever thought about until it was pointed out to me. Well, I'm not one for binary gender constructs, but here is a bunch of ladies... or are they? Who knows? Who cares? Be who you are and be happy! :-D

When you see my face...

 

Raleigh Samson

... hope it gives you hell! (Samson to Cullen at some point, probably.)

Hokay.... so between a wisdom tooth on the move, commissions and day job, I'm also doing the 29 Faces challenge for September. Of which I will post more faces later. but for now, here's my take on Dragon Age character Raleigh Samson, looking dishevelled and suffering from Lyrium withdrawal. His tale is a sad one indeed. It all happened because I came across the actor Jared Bankens and thought he kinda had a Samson vibe to him and because my wisdom tooth was driving me crazy.

September means...

 It's '29 faces' time! So here's face number 1. :-)

John Shepard

Commander John Shepard - retired

Of course he lived... and then he got to spend his happily ever after with his significant other. That's what happened. :-)
