Scott, the colors in his face are so subtle and rich at the same time. How do you do it? I've read through your posts and your article in Artist's Magazine, but I'm still amazed

Thank you everyone. You are very kind. I mentioned to Ilaria that I do in fact share something with Titian: an undying love for Italian food. Unfortunately that's where the similarity ends.
Sharon, at times I was tempted to float this one down the river Maas. I work in a small studio and it was difficult to really see the thing as it was developing. Large portraits require large studios where one can constantly step back and see what's going on.
Taking photos of a work large or small is a challenge as well. Linda, Garth is attempting to improve the quality of my poor images. I'll try to include one of the hand.

Garth is not only a great artist but a genius with Photoshop as well, and was kind enough to work his magic on my Bishop image. Many thanks Garth!

Dear Scott,
Your portrait of the Bishop is magnificent! I love how the underpainting still glows through in the key of Pompeii Red. It was rewarding to work on your posted image for you. I may have learned a lesson or two from you in the process.
Garth

Just gorgeous, Scott! You have a distinctive color palette that looks to me like Venetian Red for the warm shadows and Ultramarine Violet for the cool halftones. I don't know if you use those exact pigments but with your unique use of color we can tell a Scott Bartner from a mile away.
Too bad you live so far away and we won't get to meet you at the PSA conference.

I wish could meet you as well, particularly since the conference is being held in the Washington area, but the next best thing is seeing the photos of Cynthia's feast. I hope someone is coming to dinner equipped with digital camera.
