Number two of my volunteer/victims.
Kate is one of my good friends here in Chicago, who happens to be a fabulous artist - plus has this awesome winter hat I have coveted for two winters now. You can check out her blog and work HERE.
This portrait was much harder than my husband's. Probably because I know all the planes of his face so well. This is where I fall short working from photos and get frustrated. I need more information!!
I might keep working on Kate's portrait, but I'm pausing here for now.... July is closing fast and a GORGEOUS blue striped silk ribbon is calling my name.
