You've got to do more portraits!<BR/><BR/>By the way, I want you to know I have a new appreciation for the portrait you painted of me. Last night I realized my computer screen was set on bright which was washing out a lot of colors making everything look overexposed. Now I can see the amazing colors and more detail of the portrait you did of me. I can't wait to see the real portrait in normal light.Carol Horzempahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11831952426068146562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2902607246533124427.post-45754445942873370492009-01-07T17:15:00.000-06:002009-01-07T17:15:00.000-06:00Theresa, thanks...Tim and I decided the street sce...Theresa, thanks...Tim and I decided the street scene needs to have the buildings glazed darker to contrast with all the chunky, bright light.

DeMille) and it seems it sometimes harder to paint someone you know. Especially someone like me who never has their mouth shut, or their eyes stable (as opposed to rolling around making a point).<BR/><BR/>Looked like a good face to practice on!VickiRossArthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09258305858132024962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2902607246533124427.post-18139945684098377612009-01-07T16:46:00.000-06:002009-01-07T16:46:00.000-06:00Wow Erika how special are you to be chosen to be p...Wow Erika how special are you to be chosen to be painted by such a wonderful artist!
