Here's my son Sam. Face #3. Sam's avoided being painted for about 8 years. I don't know how he did it. But, he couldn't escape this time.

I am enjoying the progress. Thanks for keeping your blog updated. This is fun watching the project develop.
Just think what happens if everyone who sits for me ... and all their friends and family start watching the project develop...
Wouldn't that be cool?
I enjoyed your comments via email about the differences between the three days' work. I believe that today's looked sharper because the background was more solid. I used a palette knife there with plenty of pre-mixed paint to eliminate some of the "noise."
Plus, today's could have been sharper because I had less coffee. (Less camera shake.)
A handsome boy painted by a very talented mother. What fun!!
Thanks, Jerry. He's a pretty stupendous young man. Not as good as sitting as he is most other things, though!
