A portrait painted directly from a live sitter allows a special revelation of their personality. I also work well from several photographs of the subject, which creates a composite with a similar liveliness. Portraiture via webcam looks amazing, and I'll have more examples of that soon.

An individual head makes an excellent graduation or birthday present, and starts at $400. Wedding portraits start with double head and shoulders and can be full-body, up to life size, $600 and up.

I have 12 years of experience painting portraits. I earned a B.F.A. in 2006 from the Rhode Island School of Design, and my M.F.A. in Painting in 2009 from the New York Academy of Art.
