Here is a portrait example done in watercolor recently. There is a story behind this portrait...
A good friend of my family has been diagnosed with cancer recently. The medication is rough on him. He was a fairly big guy growing up and has been reduced to a shell of a man. Years ago he started to renovate his 65 Cuda but then got sick and set it aside. His kids got together and had a group of car enthusiasts finish his renovations. They did a fantastic job and he was so excited to see it restored. To add to this I created a portrait of him with his car.
This fellow helped me get a start in freelancing design many years ago. I wish there were more I could do for him and his family. Best wishes Mark and thank you.
This was created on 18x24 Arches 140lb Watercolor Block with Winsor and Newton Artist Watercolors.
