"Karin" watercolor portrait for "Let's Face It" show at UCR in Palm Desert

"Karin" watercolor. One of my portraits in the show "Let's Face It" curated by Karen and Tony Barone. Unbelievably, I could not find the other portrait that was accepted in the show, so I had to re-paint it. And....I forgot to photograph it before I dropped it off this morning. You'll have to attend the show to see it :-} Opening reception this Thursday evening, 27th at UCR, Frank Sinatra at Cook, Palm Desert. 5:30-7:30. Hope to see you there!

Disney World family portrait commission #2

I've shipped off the first commission which was a surprise from her mother for the gal shown in the middle here with her 4 children.  This version...a different composition than the first (which had the father).....is for the gal's mother, grandmother of the twins and boy and girl holding hands. This was created using 4 different photos.  A real challenge to get everyone in the correction proportion to each other.  Full sheet watercolor on 300# Arches  22" x 30"

Karin Jurick portrait

Karin had a portrait exchange on her blog for December. 180 people swapped photos and did each others portraits, then exchanged the finished portraits with each other.
One of the artists, Jill Pollsby decided to thank Karin for all her efforts by organizing a portrait painting of Karin. 118 of us painted her from the same photo and Jill put all the portraits together in a book and sent it to Karin. It was a total surprise for Karin so we all had to keep it a secret for almost 2 months. You can see Karin's reaction on her blog
and you can see all 118 portraits here

The Noodle Eater

This is one of the larger paintings that has been keeping me from my daily minis. It's from a photo that I've had for quite some time, but thought would make an interesting painting. Can't help but wonder what in the world he's going to do with those noodles once they reach his mouth.

Crystal's Memory

This cute little gal was hit and killed by a car while crossing the street last year near Palm Springs. My gallery, IncredibleArtist.com asked me to paint this portrait as a gift for her Mother, who was devastated by the loss. I was happy to do so. Crystal loved butterflies and hummingbirds. A copy of this painting will be given to her school. A bench was placed at the school in her memory. She has many friends who miss her. You can watch the CBS news story about the presentation of the painting to her mother.
