This painting won an Honorable Mention in the Plein-Air Richmond exhibit at Brazier Fine Art, a benefit for Richmond Symphony in June 2012. The judge was legendary portrait & figurative painter Everett Raymond Kinstler who came from out of state to judge the event. He's in his 80's now, and it's so meaningful that someone so revered in representational painting looked favorably at my work. Below are two photos of the painting in process with my model, and the piece framed.
