I like to find old photos to practice "hand" coloring. They aren't mine, so I couldn't post them on my site, but I think it would be ok to post here, as they are only for show.

That little girls hair is perfect. I can't think of a worthy compliment-it's great.

You are an amazing restorer....I am always impressed. I like how you never overdo...just looks natural.

This is ART! Just beautiful. I see various stages of womanhood depicted. The youngest (1st) - bright, clear. 2nd - still some of that brightness, but more subdued. 3rd - somber tones depicting some world weariness even though she still has youthful looks. Very evocative.

Thanks. I'm sort of swamped with work right now, but I've been thinking about making a tutorial for "hand" coloring. I think I've left a few how to's scattered around on some of the posts. In a nutshell, I paint right on the photo, using a light brush - details to follow.

I have to post again because I keep coming back to your images to marvel at them! I have to say that your sense and use of color in these and your other work is top notch!

Stunning work -
Thanks for your opinion on my latest effort, I must say that this restore inspired me to have a go at colouring.
What I love is the way youve made the b/w white look coloured white. Also the most important eyes havent lost their look.
We want more!!
