I really regret not using them as models even more than I did...you've got some magic years ahead of you as you grow...artist and child(ren)...together!
Garth Herrick, if you read this, I love the painting you did of your daughter (then sold!). I love "scratching" into paint myself and found that "evidence of the artist's hand" in your painting quite compelling.

Hi and welcome, Justin!
I just checked your site too. You are an incredibly well rounded artist, and I love the portraits of your kid.
I have some Snodgrass ancestry myself. The farmstead my father was raised on in western Pennsylvania was first settled by a Snodgrass, an early 19th century direct ancestor. Where is your family from?
Hi Joy. Thanks, I did read that, and I am overdue on another portrait of Lachlan. It's six years later.
