Kim

This is Kim, a brillant young lady. She is talented in many areas from sports to creative writing and art. She is a kind, loving big sister, and watches over her siblings with great care. She was a wonderful student, seldom idle with her time. Always on the go, but not hyper. She is a leader and will go far in life. I redid the original portrait I did of her by now using Painter IX. She chose the colors and her pose for her portrait. I used airbrushes, pastels, water brushes, and soft blending tools to get this effect. The hair took the logest because of all of the strands of hair and to add different hair colors in, then blend sofltly. THe skin is layers of skin tones softly blended in, and highlitghed in the end process of the painting.

Terry, I truly aspire to paint portraiture as this before I die and it will take me that long. Your are a genius at this and it is difficult. I know you work hard. It shows. Great piece. miguel

Artist Reply: Thank you Miguel! I've been working on portraits for almost 4 years now.. Each one helps me learn something new, and speed up the time it takes to comple one on average.

you have the ability to capture not only likeness but the spirit of the children you draw !

Artist Reply: Thank you Mark! I try to put in their personalities when I do them. The kids all get to pick their own poses, look at other portraits I've done and deide with me. I take referrence photos to study their faces and it aldo helps them t chose the pose they like the best, or combinations to make what they liked out of them all. It makes a differnce if they are relaxed enough to do this with me. Even the shyesy child gets into the process.
