Yes, it has truly been 2 months since my last blog post! I have missed the land of Blogger and my blog buddies! So much has been going on, that unfortunately, I haven't been able to stay on top of everything. I'm back now, though! :)
I just completed what will probably be my last custom portrait painting for the foreseeable future. I love getting to paint on canvas, and seeing the finished impact of a vibrant piece of this size (and I do get to go color and detail crazy!). However, they do take all of my focus, and a great deal of time and love. Meaning, I just can't do it all (as much as I hate admitting that). I so wish I could! I'm not complaining, I feel so very grateful that my art is requested, I just hate that I have to tell people no. Karen and John requested this painting from me last year, and they have been sooo very patient. I was so happy that I was finally able to complete it for them! Karen wanted them to be seated, and I loved getting to paint the ornate chairs. Here is the progression to its completion:
