30x40 inches . . . . . acrylic on canvas, 2008

The parents of these three sisters commissioned a pencil portrait, so we scheduled a photo shoot for reference material. After the more formal portrait was delivered, this image stood out to me from the photo shoot. It needed to be painted! I really like the colors and textures in this painting, and I guess the girls’ parents did too, because they bought the painting as well as the pencil portrait.
