Capturing likenesses in portraiture is one of my many considerations. What kind of person am I trying to portray? What will the client expect to see in the final product? Where will the portrait be displayed? Will the medium be oil paint, charcoal sketches, or watercolor?
Portraits record greatness!
I am so fascinated with portraiture and it’s ability to immortalize the most amazing people that are all around us. Early on in my art career, I fell in love with the idea of making likenesses of friends and neighbors, and it has been a delight to successfully complete this exciting work.
