        It being Mothers Day, I felt it was a good time to try this portrait of my mom. The image I used for reference is of her at my wedding in 2007. We had a beach wedding in Hawaii and she looked beautiful.

        I’m mostly a plein air landscape painter, but I do figurative and portraiture on occasion, as I love painting anything, really.

        This a little alla prima piece and took me about two hours.

        It now belongs in my mom’s collection. I gave it to her today when I finished it.

        Happy Mothers Day to all moms!

                    Very nice. Kind eyes. Love the brushstrokes.
