This is the portrait of dear Philipp, PSNaddw here, an artist of extremely refined visual language, that I wish every single one here would know more (his thumbnails, although fascinating, aren't really indicative of his awesome and multiple talent), and a guy whom I've learnt to admire and feel a deep affection for, through an intensive and always pleasant exchange of mails. For more than one year by now I loved to talk with him so, always impressed by his sensitivity and smartness, so when I asked himn to allow me to portray him as gift, I had no idea of the way he was looking like. I can just tell I wrote him back this, as he sent me his picture "You never told me you were among the most handsome men ever????" and he really is. The fact he never even hinted at it is just a further sign of his grace inside, and lack of vanity, that I totally approve.
I have to say he's way more beautiful that I portraited here... but what I would really like you all to reckon, is the awesome person and artist this charming face hides behind.
Enjoy my dear... Germany is indeed a place full of talent :)
I had a GORGEOUS time in Rome and soon I'll show you pics of this (also and especially in the Photography Forum): I ask you some patience cos it will take me quite a time to cope with all your posts I have missed these days... but you know I never let things undone. Thank you all for having appreciated my efforts these days :) and... well.. everyone come here in Italy!!!!!! Hugs :)

Do I see a hint of Brad Pitt in this ? :) - Well my dear you are most certianly smitten by this lad - And - By the Port. - Rightfully So - Your talent for capturing emotion is strong in this work - Although my wife is much the same to me - At times I make her angery - I imagine what this port. would look like in such a moment - It is a scarey thought :) lol -
gallimel

Careful and intimate pieces of draughtsmanship, a grasp for character, records of furtive expressions. The manner makes the matter. Melania is Renderositys official portraitist and also one of the most requested models.

Very good portrait. He is most handsome. Not that I would know what a handsome guy looks like because I like girls, but I am pretty sure on this one. I am most impressed by your great portrait talents, and wish I had your talent of drawing people. Great stuff...:-)
