Amy
12x9 Oil on Board
I was invited to spend a Night at the Museum as the featured
artist. Amy was one of the pirates "come alive" at the exhibit, and
volunteered to act as my subject for a half hour portrait painting
demonstration. She was a good sport, and
we had lots of fun teasing with the paying customers during our half hour. I've done portraits at fairs and exhibits
before, and have found it easier to "catch" the subject as they move
naturally through the pose while interacting with others than it is to demand
that they try to hold a rigid pose. They
think they are holding, but inevitably move imperceptibly one way or another
and it is nearly impossible to get them to move back to the original spot.
I will refund shipping charges over the actual cost by
anything over $1.
