If you don't know who Tim Minchin is, Youtube him, please, it'll take you, like, five minutes, and your whole LIFE will be enriched.
Oh my god. So, I thought it was weird that we both like David Bowie and Dr. Who - but hey! They're British Icons! BUT THIS???
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH RIGHT NOW! Tim Minchin is by far my favorite comedian, and favorite austalian musician EVER. Like on a worldwide scale, he's second to only David Bowie, and that's saying something.
Right, onto the amazingness of your painting: That hair is just amazing. I want to huggle it SO much right now. So ploofy! :3 His eyes are done splendidly, and I love the expression. So... serious. But in a Tim way, if that makes sense. Lovely work on his skin, and the shading is phenomenal - he looks... real. Very, very, very impressive work. Very impressive.
Tim Minchin is like GOD, but MORE MUSICAL and with BETTER HAIR. I had a chance to see him live at Sonisphere festival over here but the tent was so packed I couldn't get in, so I just listened from outside. Was still fantastic. I think he's your country's most valuable export. ;D
Indeed. His hair is like.... the greatest tampon hair I've ever seen (reference to Prejudice song).
That is SO awesome! SO awesome. Pity you couldn't get in, but his music is very good - he definitely could have sold himself as rock and roll nerd if he didn't make it into the comedy scene. :3 He absolutely is! He and Irwin are definitely my favorite Aussies. And Bowie is by far my favorite brit.
Yeah... that may change her opinion on things. He's genius - but not exactly sensitive. Heehee, people shouldn't take themselves TOO seriously if they intend to watch comedians, though. :3 Especially not Tim!

Yeah, my mum always comments that he's not only funny and intelligent, but he creates fantastic music. And she's a devout Christian.
