Portraits of Children

I want my art to speak to the viewer and for the viewer to feel a sense of emotion, whether the feeling is carefree, somber, or humorous. The eyes are especially important; they are the mirror to the soul and magic lies within these tiny body parts. Most people have two of them, but it’s the subtle differences between them that make an individual unique. My portraits speak through the eyes.
