Getting ready

This starts a whole new adventure for me. I have many portraits working right now. A great commission I call "Alex & Sam" that should be finished in about a month. "Where are YOU" that's elsewhere on these pages and that I plan to keep everybody up to date with. And a few other works. But with "Getting ready" I'm going to take everyone with me step-by-step on how I do a portrait.

First I draw the portrait on a gesso'd canvas.

About Me

My photo
My name is Bob Shepherd, but when I paint I'm known as "Shep". I love to paint people. Happy people. Sad people. People dancing. People in contemplation. Old people. Young people. Lately I've gotten into painting new things and I'm enjoying the challenge. Flowers and still life's have been fun. My blog is here to show you what I'm doing and how I'm doing it. If I'm doing your commission you can follow the progress of your "PortraitbyShep". If you'd like me to do your portrait please notify me through the blog. Please enter your email above and I hope you enjoy the blog. Shep
