Dad's 67th Birthday!

I thought that as a gift and a chance to also get some more practice creating caricatures ( all be it kind ones, I know what side my bread's buttered! lol! ) Using a pencil sketch, painting and tweaking in Photoshop and popping into a frame.  I was quite pleased with the result made even more so by the reaction when I gave it to him wrapped on his Birthday! He was born and lived in the East-End and as such is a massive West Ham supporter and is the reason that I too also support them! So what better way of representing him than in the "Claret and Blue" of his beloved team along with the bubbles from the anthem sung home and away by the fans - " I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles". ( Incidentally he is in the current home kit along with the number of his age on his shorts!)
