Ellen

I know this portrait is a little out of season for the summertime, but Ellen is a portrait of a sweet lady at 93, going on 94, which began as an auction donation. Sadly, Ellen passed on last year, but having had the chance to get to know her briefly and begin her portrait was a joy, and I hope she would approve of it. She posed for some photos and the intention was to have a few sittings, but alas, that was never to be. So at last, she is finished, and smiling to celebrate with the rest of us. Enjoy! Tonight, I deliver her.

38" x 26", oil on linen
