When I see historic paintings in galleries, I sometimes think about how that was a real person with his/her own complex life at one time. If the artist is going to sell the piece, I would definitely see if it was possible to buy it.

It turned out just wonderful! I see strength when I look at it.<br /><br />I doubt he asked to paint you with the intent of turning around and selling it to you. He saw something in you that he wanted to paint, and having lived with an artist myself (my dad) he would want that out in the world.<br /><br />I'm not sure that I would want to be startled into staring into my own eyes on my wall. But to each his own (portrait). :)Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05875008154587045790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-60071719403783727862015-01-09T11:16:04.648+00:002015-01-09T11:16:04.648+00:00That's a wonderful portrait!
