Charlie Chaplin 1

Today I've glazed the first layer of a picture first planned and drawn last December. Charlie Chaplin Disappointed at not Being Able to Stop Global Fascism is a surreal portrait in the classic 30's style; a standard face but with symbols too. Tomorrow should complete this first and most important glazing layer which, as is usual for me, is on wood and incorporates the excellent amber varnish in walnut oil in its media.
