The subject I chose is my own left hand in various positions and lighting, sometimes holding an object, sometimes outdoors, always an exhilarating challenge! The 20th Street Gallery is located at 911 20th Street, Sacramento, www.20art.net

Painting fifty images of my hand has inspired me to seriously undertake the study of portraiture, a genre I have enjoyed dabbling in literally all of my life. My mother drew portraits of all her children, and one of my earliest memories is of her showing me how to divide the face to achieve a likeness. I hope you will check back on my progress from time to time, as I will one day be ready to accept portrait commissions. At present I am practicing painting my own face in monochrome only, and this is my latest endeavor, painted april 22, 2008.
