Portraiture

Fine Art Portraits, Painted From Life & From Photographs

I’ve spent more than two decades painting portraits from life and from photographs. Every portrait is meant to feel real, familiar, and true to the person you know. Whether we start from a live sitting or natural-light photos, the goal is a painting that feels alive
