Painting from a client photo
A client wanted to give an anniversary painting to her husband. She had a few photos in mind to paint, but was accommodating when I asked if I could suggest which photo to paint from, and she gave me four photo albums worth of their wedding day.
I picked this one as is is flattering, romantic, and transitions well into a painting. Although it was from there wedding, I find the pose a great general analogy for the "dance" of life together.
I kept a painting of Richard Schmidt's nearby as a texture guide for paint strokes.
The painting colors here are a little off - making her look more palid and ghostly than in the real life - sorry not to have adjusted that.
