Sundae


Sundae
20x16"
Oil

     This is my latest and last commission. This lovely client talked me into it after I had already sworn off doing commissions. I am very honored that she wanted me to paint this for her.
     To me this is a "true-love" portrait. It was very important to convey the warmth and devotion these two feel for each other. I knew that even if the likeness was perfect but the feeling was not there, the painting would fail. I think it succeeded. My client likes it and she tells me that Sundae likes it too.
