Men in skirts in art...

So I am on the planet for 62 years and never featured in any art. Then within the space of a week, I get to see myself through two artist eyes. The first was at a party in London where I got talking to this artist who was into drawing fetish subjects and ended up sitting for him to draw me.
Then knowing Satindea is into drawing, following our fine time visiting the Tate and Portrait gallery in London, I sent him a copy and he returned with another drawing he had already done of me from one of my pictures.
For context and to show how amazing the drawing is, here is the picture SatinDea used.
I am blown away that both artist used their talents to depict me at 62 years old. This never happened in all my years in trousers.
My thanks to both for their skills.
I am aware of another full painting of an man in a dress, that I had the privilege of attending the unveiling of in a pub in Aberdeen last year......
