Here's my latest portrait. A Country Boy. He was so much fun to paint. I just loved his smiling face and eyes and painting his hat and clothes. I also enjoyed his character.
He is so different than most of the people I normally interact with but I think that I visited his world while paiting him.
I am really enjoying painting portraits. They are taking me about two weeks to complete which is a bit faster than they used to take me and I can see that they are getting better. What do I tell my students all the time? Practice practice practice!
I really must apologize that it's been so long since my last post. I really have been busy and it will continue right through to the summer. I just keep thinking that if I got myself organized that I would have more time but somehow it's not working that way for me these days!

Your portraits are getting better with every new one you paint :) I like how you captured his smiling eyes - makes the cowboy come alive!
Thank you very much. They are like everything else; they take practice practice practice!
