This spread was created while watching Simon Schama talk about Rembrandt for an hour on my 'Power of Art' DVD.
Two of the portraits were sketched in Noodlers red/blk ink and the other two directly in watercolour.
The bottom right is a self portrait, a glimpse caught in the mirror on the table beside me.
I enjoyed working directly in watercolour, using the brush to sketch with was quite liberating
