as some of you may have noticed i became very enamoured by the character of Thomas Cromwell in Wolf Hall, and the other day i was reading about the portrait of actual Thomas Cromwell by the painter Hans Holbein, and that of all the portraits he made, the one of Cromwell seemed the most mocking and unflattering. i felt compelled to create a more flattering image of him, and i spent the past four weeks or so doing just that :)
