We are all pretty much “works in progress”.

In Progress – Daughter

Oil on primed masonite. Normally I paint rocks, trees, and water – in any combination, but I thought I would give portrait painting a try. This painting was meant as a souvenir for my daughter, who recently returned from two years’ service in the Peace Corps in Benin, West Africa. So far I have learned you need to work from a really good reference photo, not one taken in an airport’s dimly lit parking garage, of someone who promptly flies off for another part of the world, and I have also learned that you should really start learning to paint portraits by avoiding painting a family member. Start with strangers!
