Portrait of Tante Toni



A portrait I did of my great aunt. More realistic than I usually work, but that was part of the job. This lady is one of a kind, and I'm so lucky to know her. Thank you for asking me to do this, Les!

  2. Thank you, Amanda! It was a tough one, I actually did a more abstracted portrait of her in gouache before I started this. I need to take a good photo of that and I'll post it up here. I forget how much I love oils until I have time to use them again.
