My name is Magnus McLeod.  I paint commissioned portraits of loved ones, ancestors and pets, portraying physical features with perfect realism and revealing vividly personality and character.  I  paint electronically because electronic portraits come closest to perfection.  It also enables me to utilize the best source materials available.  To see one of my favourite portraits, with copper jewellery derived entirely from my imagination, please click the thumbnail on the left.  Please bear in mind that you will see a 62 KB JPEG, a very poor substitute for the 25 MB TIFF original!  For more information on my work and electronic painting, please click Text only.  To see more examples of my portraits, please click Mike, Harriet, Oohna or Leila.  For an example of a portrait showing the subject thirty years younger, please click Self-Portrait.  Victorian Colonel is an example of an historical portrait, and Two Dogs is a memorial portrait of two much-loved pets.  For further insights into my work, please click Sketch of the Artist's Wife.  For a practical example of what I mean by perfection, please click Miniature Armour.  For information on commissioning a portrait, please click Office.
