Holiday Home Tour: "Hannah"
I have really been struggling with medical problems in my right hand, Arthritis, carpel tunnel, and some weird problem with a tendon have put me in a cast for a week so I could not do anything. It was very frustrating. My doctor is still telling me I should not hold a pencil or paintbrush with my right hand for some time. Afraid that is not possible with the backup of commission I have.
I just finished this drawing for the Home Tour on the 15th. I was commissioned to do their dog as well, but doubt it will be completed before the show. They are allowing me to hang other portraits of mine throughout the house though.
Anyways, this is exciting. Of all the houses on the tour I was picked to be placed in the most popular house, the largest and most stately. Last year over 1,000 people wallked through these home. It's a big deal, like having my own exhibit!!
Here is the portrait of Hannah. I am so lucky that I get these beautiful little girls. She is four years old, so photogenic that they want me to do a triptic of three more images, closely cropped and done in graphite!! It will be an exciting project!
Thank you for looking.
