Holiday Show This Weekend!

Look at this beauty. I've wanted to paint her for a while.
I'll be painting half-hour portraits all weekend at the Croton Artisans' show. Contact me to sign up in advance, or just stop by!

Half-Hour Portrait

Something interesting happened as I was painting this portrait. I’ve painted a few other members of her family, but that was a few years ago, and honestly, I’m not sure I remember all of the faces. But as I was painting this portrait, I realized that I had painted certain of her features before—in a sibling, or her mom… not sure who. It was a strange feeling, but cool.

Second portrait of the weekend. Isn't she lovely?

I'm lucky enough to have been able to paint this beauty twice now.

What a great show we had this weekend! Have I mentioned that I LOVE painting portraits?

And here’s the adorable brother. Sitting for a portrait was not what he wanted to be doing, but he hung in there, and I’m so glad! I just love painting these kids.

I’ll be painting at our local holiday show on Dec. 10 and 11, so if you’d like to reserve a sitting, just let me know. I’m also booking portraits for the Thanksgiving weekend!

OK, I’ve been whining a little bit about the continuing cold. But come July, when it’s 90 degrees, I’m going to be happy to look back at this painting and remember those lovely, crisp winter nights, walking home from a holiday party as night falls and the lights come on. Locals, do you see our own little dummy light right there in the center?
