Portrait of Francesco.

 What a delightful human being and subject, thank you Francesco for sitting this one out...

Here is a little picture of the subject and portrait for means of likeness.

Pippa Portrait

Best model ever, Pippa sat so still that I could complete this portrait in an hour... and those eyes!

Alex Portrait

Alex is a traveller from France, who stayed here for a bit and makes great Lemon Meringue Pie... 

I have to pin people down more often, when I paint from life and on a rough textured canvas, it loosens me up a bit... Working on speeding up the process.
