William Shatner in “Boston Legal”

William Shatner as Denny Crane S

Earlier this year i watched at the series “Boston Legal” and it became one of my favourites. I especially enjoyed the relationship there between the two main male actors Wiiliam Shatner and James Spader. So much that I decided to make their portraits, my own way to be able to look at them even after the series was finished! I decided to paint them in these wonderful scenes on the balcony, at the end of each episode, where they are smoking a big cigar together.

Some time ago I started with “Alan Shore” (James Spader), but then I had too many other professional obligations and I had to leave Alan alone for a while. But these days I have made the portrait of “Denny Crane” too, in pastel and brown colour pencil.

I have also decoded to draw some others interesting characters from the Boston Legal Team… coming soon if nothing else comes between!

This painting is available directly online as Giclee print in many different dimensions, on paper or canvas, and also as greeting cards. Just click on the widgets below to access my FAA store

And more generally you can see all the stuff I paint by going to my gallery “Miki’s Enchanted World”. Just click -gently!- on my face.

A quiet moment on the balcony

james-spader-with-text-sA short time ago we  finished watching the American series

“Boston legal”

and I must say that it is one of my favourite series all time, perhaps even THE favourite.

I love the humour in it, and more than anything I love the friendship between the two male main characters, “Alan Shore” and “Denny Crane”.

As the series was finished, it was really sad for me, as if I was losing some friends of mine…

So, the best way to get them back now is to spend some time with them, making their portraits. I wanted to catch them both in this wonderful moment they were spending on their balcony, smoking a cigar, at the end of each episode, and sharing wise thoughts about themselves and the world. I started with Alan, Denny will follow soon.

My God, how I miss these

quiet moments on their balcony!

My last portrait… I hope you recognise him!

Unfortunately there are not many artists making portraits, I find, and I feel quite alone here in WordPress with this art. If you feel like discussing with me about the art of portraying, or about anything concerning portrait paintings, or simply love this art, please join me at

Portraits for Life

I would be very pleased about that. I present there regularly my last works in this field, “classical” portraits in different techniques as well as caricatures.

I wanted to emphasize the impression of light, and this is why I didn’t put too many details.

Concerning children:
