"Serene Posture"
This was a quick oil wash painting for a class project. The hair was fun to draw, as was her regal posture.
"Ghana Girl"
A friend snapped a photo of this girl while he was in Ghana, Africa on a missions trip. The joy in her eyes shows that even in her poverty, she is so happy to have God.
"Lauryn and Bryon"
I painted this for some friends who got married this summer. Congrats!
"Biondina"
Master copy of Lord Leighton's Biondina. I learned much about skin tone and details.
"Julie"
This was the first attempt at painting a portrait from life. I learned about facial structure while painting this. Painting from life is so valuable.
"A Light Smoke"
A commission of my physical therapist's grandmother. I enjoyed painting the truly vintage aura of this snapshot.

The Color of Life: Painting People.
People are God's most precious creation. It is so fulfilling and enjoyable to paint people in various stages of life and emotion. The eyes are always my favorite part!
