Portraits

I have spent an enormous amount of time trying to perfect my portraiture work and I am still working on it. At this time, it is not a large focus of my art as I have shifted to creating more landscape paintings. However, I still truly love the satisfaction of being able to capture a person’s spirit and glow in a sketch or a painting and plan to bring watercolour and portraiture together soon in future work.
