It was a challenge...


One of my friends asked me to paint a mini for her... and I didn't think I could pull it off. The ask: make a chubby, career woman, with a smirk... and if possible, make it look like she's keeping a secret. I spent days thinking through how I would accomplish that look. And although it was a challenge... I have to admit, I think I nailed it!!

LaToya
























So, I'm pretty impressed with LaToya. She has been sitting faceless (without, nose, eyes and lips) for two months. She was a blank face with hair. And the other night, I was able to give her life!! Also, I've made a decision to Sell her. It will be difficult I know, but I have a wall full of paintings at this point and it's 2012 and time for my art to see other walls!
