[Janel Maples]

Now that I have my Mac figured out and I can post an image, I am eager to post this.

This is a portrait I completed in May. The reference photo is posted in the Photo critique section under the same title.

She was a joy to paint.

This was painted prior to my two week workshop with Marvin Mattelson. I am REALLY eager to apply what I learned from that valuable experience to my next portrait. I look at this and see where I would make changes, but she has already been delivered and I can't have her back. Her parents are very pleased though, so that is good.

Thanks for looking.
