SEE ME OVER AT GARY'S BLOG

My artist/blogger friend, Gary Everest, is painting an oil portrait of me.  Now, it's not your usual "don't show any wrinkles or sags, darling" portrait.  It's expressive.  Meaning, it should make you feel something.  I'm really enjoying what he's doing and how he's working on the features and colors and - well, not being an oil painter, I'm amazed at this process and would love to see it in action - but will have to just watch the blog and see it come to life. 


Go over and take a look and tell him what you think!

It does look painful, Rhonda...were you acting or did you have a migraine at the time of the photo? He's certainly made your blue scarp "pop."

LOL! I was just acting like I had a migraine, Carol :) Yeah, I love that scarf :)

I'm loving watching the progress of this painting. You did a good job posing, really convincing pained look!

Thanks, Ruth! I'm enjoying seeing Gary bring this one to life :)
