I am working on my first commission of an evening scene in Boston.
It is a pleasure to be able to bring to life a scene to be enjoyed for a lifetime by my young client. I am an artist who is stimulated by the ideas of my clients and uses them as a springboard.
I work these landscape/home commissions in around my portrait commissions and I'm very pleased to do this work as well. They make unique, thoughtful gifts and this one happens to be a gift too. I may posts some little color sketches I did to get ready for the finish. The sky color was a consideration: a Prussian blue or more a purple-blue? . . .more to come.*
*update 5/2013: The painting has been completed and approved. I will post the image in August after this wedding gift is given.
