Portraits

About This Collection

I am always trying to improve my skills and one of the ways I do that is by challenging myself to step outside my comfort zone and paint subjects that intimidate me. Portraits intimidate me so for the month of April 2022 I have committed to painting at least 12 portraits.

These portraits can be people or animals. Thanks for checking out my artwork.

Hoping to Accomplish
