Here's a multi-person portrait of some lovely young ladies from Cleveland, Ohio... I love this family so much.  Its funny how you can go from not knowing someone to being deep friends in the matter of days. That's how i feel about "The McCartney Girls"s mother...   
Here's another image of my art studio.   The monochromatic painting in the frame of the boy in a choir robe, i just finished and sent to the Client in Alaska.   She said, "The Portrait is beautiful. The frame is perfect. ...I did absolutely the right thing when i got together with you to do Eric's portrait.... Thanks Molly  - Barbara."

Palettes


Out with the old; In with the new.
Here's a cute image of an informal photo shoot that i did of a friend, Cloe. I will draw this when i get some spare time.  It's just so darling. 
Here's a better image of the painting of Alexandria... Even still i am always so disappointed at how different paintings look on the web compared to in person.  ... Oh well, I am very excited about it. I love it.  It shines.  I can't wait to finish it and  send it to the clients. 
After some more painting sessions, here is another update on the portrait of Sheila and Alexandria.  

I finally achieved a level of glow and aliveness that i wanted in Alexandria's face.  I feel very satisfied with her portrait.  

This week I will finish Sheila's face... along with the other portraits i've been working on.  :)
