Raymond's Portrait






Aloha Aikane, I started this portrait of my friend Raymond back in October of last year on the second day of my 17 day retreat on the Island of Moloka'i . I was able to get him back for another sitting the day before I left in November, with about 2 weeks in between. I had put bright hot reds, oranges, yellows and greens on the canvas first, then painted right over that during the live sittings. I took photos that I am doing the background from back here in my studio.
