Courtney and friend




This is Courtney, she was right at two years old when I photographed her sitting on my dining room table in front of a window.

From the start I was seduced by her downward pensive glance, not to mention her red hair and blue eyes.

Oil on New Traditions linen panel, oil primed, 20 x 16.

Mike,

This came out to be absolutely beautiful! Congratulations. The edges are wonderful in this painting. And the background is just perfect.

She is so cute it almost makes me want to babysit. Almost.

Mike,

What I especially like about your style is the way you have focused on the structures.

They reminds me of a Danish painter / illustrator
