Portrait Raffle!


The Bentwater Holiday Home Tour will visit our home this December 9th & 10th. All the preceeds go to charity. Ours will be "Tough Enough to Wear Pink" for breast cancer research. To bring in additional funds we will raffle the painting to the left. I will complete the painting during the two nights. It is a still life of one of my antique golf clubs with an antique "BOLT Tornado" golf ball and a "Reddy Tee".

The painting is 8" x 24" and is valued at $400. I don't know how much the raffle tickets are yet, but would any of you be interested in buying a ticket?

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
