Portrait : Joseph & Linda
completed in November, 2005
Size: 9×12
Medium: Oil Painting
Notes: A custom portrait of Joseph (father) and Linda (daughter) engaged by the fire. This composition was created from the memory of a woman about a time she enjoyed with her father as a teenager. Minimal reference photos of the room and subjects, I built the setting through sketches and repositioning at the request of my client.
the work “Joseph & Linda” is wonderful. it is SO natural for you, obviously, you should consider going more deeply into this direction. i am really very taken with it. you are reminding me to do the same in the sense that the human figure is sometimes neglected while the miracles of nature are being interpreted. thanks.
happy new year!
