After two concentrated days of painting, I have laid down the initial layer paint on Charlie's gift portrait. I will move on to his hair today while the paint on the face dries. It is an honor to be portraying this man of great courage and faith!
It has been a busy summer, but I have found some hours to invest in Acacia's portrait. I put a lot of work into the mountainous background as well as perfecting some subtle details in her face and further developing her hair.
