Personalized Portraits
Bring into your life a custom portrait of someone you love and admire. We'll start by discussing the special and unique aspects of this person. I will present you with studies. Upon your approval I will paint the portrait. I paint more than a likeness. I capture and illuminate the spirit of your mentors, friends and family.
"I have always tried to explain to my family that paintings are alive in a way that some photographs cannot be. A photograph can catch every detail accurately, but when a painting captures a feeling it is magical. It isn’t every detail that builds the story, just the important ones. I think you did that. When my kids saw the painting they immediately said 'Mom, that is how you look when you are thinking.' Your painting is alive and I have to say you have captured a me that the people who know me best see. My daughter finally understood what I meant about a painting being alive and after going to the Louvre and d’Orsay she “sees it”. - Wendy
