Portraits are hard. Except for portraits of my family, all portraits are commissioned. Getting a likeness is not overly difficult, but getting a likeness that the sitter or the person commissioning the work is not easy. John Singer Sargent said, “Every time I paint a portrait, I lose a friend.” Unlike landscapes and still lifes, a portrait requires both precision and intuition.
