Exhibition portraits day 1

Vivienne

I had another great day at the exhibition - with over 80 visitors and a photographer from the Nottingham Evening Post in attendance! 
I don't quite know how I managed to get any paint on the canvas with all that was going on, but here it is, my first portrait of the ten! I'm going to attempt to paint a portrait from life for each day of the exhibition. I am pretty exhausted tonight though ;-)

  1. Are these volunteers, people that walk in or rearranged? I couldn't imagine doing 10 portraits in a year, let alone 10 days! Looks like you have made a good start, excellent in fact LOL.

    1. Thank you Jacqui! The models are all booked in ready, after I mentioned it on my blog a couple of weeks ago I had a lot of interest!

  2. Curios about your framing - can you please comment on the variety of frames being used for your exhibition? What role do you think the framing has played on your sales? Thanks for sharing!
