March 2006 Artistry Tips and Tricks

Photo and painting of Laurence Gartel by Karen Sperling.


Karen,

I was delighted to see the portrait you did of me.
An otherwise mundane picture comes to life with
the magical strokes of the brush. - Wait....thats a
digital manipulation. A perfect likeness through
your talented hand.
