Reporting back,
This is the first portrait of a stranger I have had to deliver myself (the others were out of town so I was not there to see the customer's reaction). My customer owns a small Greek restaurant so I arrived before her customers began to trickle in. She said, "Oooooh, my BABY!!!" She folded her arms around herself and tears welled in her eyes. Then she picked it up and oohed and aahed some more. She commented on her eyes ("you captured her personality EXACTLY!) and she loved her arm and hand, "Oh my baby's round hands are so cute!!!" Then as I ate my breakfast and people started to trickle in, she had to bring the portrait to every one of her customers. I ran out of business cards!!!
I've been floating all weekend! Once again, I am reminded of why I love doing portraits so much, what could be more rewarding than to hear from your customer that you have captured the essence/spirit of their loved one!
