I've been really into Lucian Freud's work lately, so while at the library the other day I checked out one of his books and did a copy of his portrait, Gaz.
It's definitely one of my favorites by him. Gaz, a Soho club musician, looks like quite the character, and Freud describes him as such in an interview. Freud says, "[he] was sort of ludicrous. He was always making difficulties, but they were basically economic, so I didn't mind." He also quipped, "...The thing is, he was boring and fascinating at the same time."
