A portrait is a very special way of capturing a specific moment in time, and preserving it. A well-done portrait captures not only the physical appearance of a person, but a sense of personality.
There are many styles of portraiture. Classical realism describes my style best, as I love to study and portray the details that make each person unique and beautiful.
