As a perfectionist, Magnus McLeod paints portraits electronically. This beautiful painting of Leila comes much closer to doing justice to the subject than would any photograph of her.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 my painting of Leila, which radiates intelligence and humanity,  please click the thumbnail on the left.  Please bear in mind that you will see a 106 KB JPEG, a very low resolution substitute for the 33 MB TIFF original!  For more information on my work and electronic painting, please click Text only.  To see further examples of my portraits, please click Mike, Harriet or Oohna.  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.  To return to my Home Page, please click Home.
