While I was still living in Los Angeles, a couple commissioned me to create a series of portraits of various family members. First, there was a portrait painted from the grandparent’s wedding photo, which was presented to the grandparents as an anniversary gift.
Then, separate portraits of the couple’s three sons.
These paintings are all watercolors on 140 lb. Arches cold press watercolor paper ranging in size from 20″ x 28″ to 15″ x 18″. All were completed in 2004.

Long ago, in the late ’70’s and early ’80’s, I took a few watercolor classes, and I KNOW how difficult watercolor is to control! These are wonderful–you must have used quite a bit of drybrush, as well as washes, to do these great faces in particular! They really wonderful–wish I’d had the talent to keep on with it–it was a great deal of fun just doing something with other artists!
