Hot Date 1954, Kurt & Dad, Millie

Three new portraits today! They are all acrylics, on 9 x 12″ gallery-wrapped canvases.

The first one is called “Hot Date 1954.” Here’s the reference photo I was given–as you can see, I had the challenge of taking a black-and-white reference photo and putting it into color on the canvas.

The next one is called “Kurt and His Dad.” This photo was taken on Kurt’s wedding day.

The last one is called “Millie” and my reference photo is another black-and-white. I’m not sure how long ago the photo was taken, but I know this striking young woman is a grandmother now.
