Below are some examples of portraits I have created from simple photographs.

I am a seasoned, accomplished artist with expertise in watercolor portraiture.  I am offering the opportunity for you to commission a portrait of a loved one.  It may be of a favorite person, a gift to a bride, a grandchild, a graduate, yourself or your beloved spouse.

Watercolor portraits intrigue me...it seems magical to capture a person's personality using brushes and water and paint.  I've used other media to create portraits and I find that only watercolor produces the effect I wish to achieve.

I try to capture the personality of my subject in each portrait and create a composition, style and layout appropriate to each. That is where the art begins and the photograph ends.  I work from a good photograph that captures the familiar expression unique to the individual.
