Painting from Life: the Portrait Sitting
While I do not require a sitting with my portrait subjects, it's always a pleasure to get to know my subjects better and to observe from life while chatting. I promise you it is not a sleepy event; but a nice time to learn a bit more about each other. It's truly a pleasure and honor to paint my subjects and I do appreciate when they are able to take the time to stop by. Even just one hour can be a very beneficial experience and personalizes the painted commission.
