My latest portrait is of 6-year old Lucy Hall. Commissioned by her father James Hall. James and I had been talking about a portrait of Lucy for several years, having discussed several photographs we hadn’t found a picture of her which I thought would make a good portrait painting.
Intimate photograph of Lucy’s face, with her characterful, tender, joyful look on her face. Cute teeth and freckles.
Here are a few pictures of the patron James Hall on the evening of the unveiling. I wrapped the picture up in brown paper, as is now the custom…
Another happy customer. And apparently Lucy loved the picture too…
