Portrait of Talent...

"Portrait of Talent"
Watercolors on Paper (8.5" x 11" (21.5 cm x 27.9 cm)

Painting portraits is always challenging. Every person has unique features that when not captured nicely make the result doesn't look like the person. Capturing facial features is only one aspect of painting a portrait. Capturing feelings is the essential and the most challenging aspect of it.

This portrait certainly challenged me to the greatest extent. Struggled to get the grasp on it to portray the feel of talent in this Portrait. I think I am very close to capturing the feel of talent in this Portrait, if not captured fully.

"Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter."

- Oscar Wilde

Happy painting!
Sharpen you talent by practice!!
