Blue Ridge Parkway Artist, Sister Paintings, and It is always a Battle...

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

I have two sisters and they have let me make portraits of them which is something artists often do.  Models are expensive and it is a great experience to paint family members.  

 

This first one is of Nan when she was ten with the only dog she had growing up.  My mother decided I needed a dog and we got this adorable poodle that we all loved.  We liked to let the hair grow out rather then trim it. 

Beau was a very sweet dog and Nan was devoted to him.

Nan was quite athletic and became a Ice Skating instructor.  I love to tell people that since it certainly isn't a run of the mill occupation.  She excels at skating and teaching the sport.

I am glad I was able to paint her as a child and adult.  She is an interesting subject and I am especially pleased with the expressive look in her eyes in this portrait.

My new painting is coming along but I think it is going into the arm wrestling stage.  I guess if they didn't start out well I would never pick up a brush. 

I love to paint but it is always a battle!
