Portrait of Jackie

This is a life-sized oil on linen, a portrait of the eldest of a family of five. I painted each child when they reached the age of seven. This sitting was on a beautiful stretch of beach in Florida. The boy and his mom and I searched for the perfect location, making our way around no trespassing signs and turtle nesting areas before finding the right spot.
