I thought I would show something I started and have yet to finish. Here is the venerable Mr. Robert Genn in mid-lecture. I was fortunate to be included in his Bugaboo heli-painting adventure in September 2010. He is a really great guy and something of a sage when it comes to painting and life. I liked the unusual light effect here. Hopefully posting this will motivate me to finally get the portrait completed - I can see all sorts of things that need tweaking!
Coincidentally, I just read the most recent letter on Robert Genn's website, "The Painters Keys" , and was gobsmacked by his tale of getting a call from a broker who told him to bring over any old painting and he would be presented with a cheque for $60,000. Wow. Hmm, wonder if that guy could use a portrait of Mr. Genn as well?

Amazing work, really captured a moment in time there. I often notice alterations in my work that needs adjusting, only after a few days.
so lively...
kept my hands tight or the blood will be in my fingers if i touch his face...

Thanks guys! I appreciate the encouraging words. Still haven't gotten around to finishing this one, always moving on to the next thing....
