4/9/2002: Suspect painted in watercolor



Have you seen this man?

An unknown person wandered into a watercoloring class in Sussex England. He sat next to an old lady and chatted with her. When she got up to clean her brushes, he took her handbag. Later, he broke into her house.

So in response, the group did what came naturally: with their memory of him, they helped their teacher paint the guy.

It's a nice approach, but they should have gone with modern acrylics. Watercolors just soften the guy's features and give him a little bit of appeal. His lost eyes and the soft focus of his lips give him an air of regret for what he's done.

Or could the artistic impression add to the description?
