My most recent portrait comes on the tail end of holiday portrait orders. This portrait was requested by a wonderful mother interested in having her daughter’s portrait created in honor of her first birthday. I found that to be such a sweet gift.
She decided on graphite pencil and couldn’t have chosen a more appropriate medium for the image she wanted to portray.
Introducing Ella, in all her beauty and grace…

Following the Twin Tower tragedy of September 11, 2001, I created a portrait titled, Speechless, to help me come to terms with how I felt inside – if that was at all possible…
Today, in commemoration of that day ten years ago, I am reposting Speechless in hopes that in some small way my thoughts and prayers will be felt by the family and friends of the lives lost on that day…

I’ve been in correspondence with Nataly, a wonderful mother from Russia, with regards to painting a portrait of her daughter Sophie. After much consideration, we decided I would create a portrait inspired by a photograph taken by photographer, Anastasia Serdukova. This portrait is titled Kissed by the Light.
As Sophie is such a vibrant girl, I felt the best choice of medium would be pastel. Since PanPastel offers a strong painterly effect, I opted to use this type of pastel for the portrait as I wished for bold, bright color and light - a representation, I felt, worked best in Sophie’s likeness.
Thank you Anastasia and Nataly. Most of all thank you Sophie for influencing this piece with your lively personality and beauty.

Over the past month I have been working, once again, with a fairly new type of pastel called PanPastels. The medium is a joy to work with.
This is a formal portrait of Zachary titled, Black Tie Affair. He is most often on the move and would rather not waste a moment to have his photograph taken. This portrait captures him in his holiday attire, looking like a little man.
