Portrait of author Daniel Abelman. I did this one for his novel ALLAKAZZAM!, which I had great pleasure illustrating.  |

That's exceptionally good, Delph. Loads of character in the portrait. Well done.

Planning is an unnatural process - it is much more fun to do something. The nicest thing about not planning is that failure comes as a complete surprise, rather than being preceded by a period of worry and depression. [Sir John Harvey-Jones]

No hidden pictures within the picture this time. Very lifelike though. Good stuff.  |

Thank you folks! Daniel sent me a load of photos to work from, most of which had serious bookish expressions - but there was one where he was smiling, and that's the real Daniel as far as I'm concerned, so that's the one I used.

Looks exactly as I imagined. Another strong character who has been absent from the websites I frequent.
Yo Daniel, I trust you are well. Nice picture.

Thanks Les!
And yes, Daniel does tend to get kicked off many websites, but he seems to be just about hanging on here...

Things go well. My dearly beloved celebrated her 78th birthday yesterday and I turn eighty next month.
We are expecting another great grandson in November (total of three boys and a girl) so things are fine.
We are in the midst of a heatwave oc=f over thirty degrees and I can't wait for cooler weather.
Is this your new penname?
Cheers.
