Abdul Portrait and Going to Atlanta

"Abdul", Oil on Canvas.

First of all here is a new painting. This is a portrait commission which is beginning to wrap itself up, much like "Born During a Carnivale". Only that Carnivale has its frame! Abdul is portrayed here, by his own request, as a Buddhist Monk. Soon his portrait will be framed in a dark varnished wood. More on these both soon!

Lovely red folds of drapery.

In addition I will soon be heading to Atlanta, Georgia with my painting "Father Time". You can read all about the painting here.

The Portrait Society Exhibit at the Grand Hyatt in downtown Atlanta is scheduled to begin at 4pm on April 28. I will we there for about 3 days to enjoy the Conference, watch the paint-off, learn some new things from some of America's best painters, meet new people, and finally take part in the Gala Banquet where the winners of the Portrait Society of America Competition will be announced.
