I got to paint this uncanny #portrait of my pal as #RobbieBurns, who he’s playing in @wonderfools.org’s upcoming play The Kelton Hill Fair. A mad brief I found very fun and refreshing. You should go see it in #Glasgow next week!

A photo of a man standing in a sunny street with tenement buildings behind him. He is holding an oil painting portrait of himself as Robbie Burns, like a copy of the well known painting.

Photo still if a woman painting a copy portrait of Robbie Burns, with someone else face. The canvas is leaning on a wooden easel and the artist is half in shot off to the left hand side. Her paintbrush is touching the nose of the portrait.

Portrait of the Scottish poet Robbie Burns.

Finished copy of the portrait of Robbie Burns changed to be someone else’s face.
