This portrait was painted for the
Martin family of their seven grandchildren. I was lucky
enough that they all lived in the Florida area and I was
able to gather them together in one house for the initial
photo shoot. Although I start the shoot with a planned sketch,
there is always a certain amount of improvising that takes
place, especially with young children. This gives the painting
the natural unposed look that is what I strive for in the
finished painting.
