I think that your mind is so amazing as you have snuck so many things into the details of your painting. <BR/><BR/>Do you know of Emily Martin - "the black apple". She is super creative in the craft/art world and I think she would be amazing to do a piece on. She very recently moved to Portland and she can be found at www.theblackapple.typepad.commrs.deanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10203392428357626286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5341967932815075836.post-55895939491481419912008-10-24T09:32:00.000-04:002008-10-24T09:32:00.000-04:00Hi BrendaYup, Portland Maine's a small town in man...Hi Brenda<BR/><BR/>Yup, Portland Maine's a small town in many ways - I hope you can visit sometime! And if you do, you'll have to sit for a portrait!<BR/>What I have told the people who are sitting for me is that I will make each of them a nice quality color print of the finished portrait in exchange for their time sitting. I want to have an exhibit of all the portraits at the close of the project (which will probably be in 1-2 years, because, as I promised here on my blog and to myself, I am not doing these at a mad pace like I did my thesis project!!! I did the bulk of those 80 portraits in 4 months! Whew. No wonder my arms went numb! What my body had to do to get my attention...) <BR/>When I exhibit the portraits they will all be for sale. I will most likely make another book as well.<BR/>This portrait of Amanda is on 41" x 29" Rives BFK, my all time favorite paper to work with! And yes, Amanda does look terrific! She is a very graceful woman. When I was almost full term I looked like I had the nose of a TORPEDO under my smock! :^)martha millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17847828956846494958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5341967932815075836.post-49113113960966343442008-10-23T12:07:00.000-04:002008-10-23T12:07:00.000-04:00Wow, Martha this looks great!

I've never been to Maine but read both of your blogs regularly... and here you are in the same room. I love the idea of the birds - and she looks great, I can't believe her baby's due soon. How big is this piece and will she be keeping it?<BR/><BR/>Now who's your next subject?! :)artslicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13557982924385155156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5341967932815075836.post-62278059435742351892008-10-23T08:36:00.000-04:002008-10-23T08:36:00.000-04:00oh, i need to mess around with the background a bi...oh, i need to mess around with the background a bit more...<BR/>but thanks, sue!martha millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17847828956846494958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5341967932815075836.post-77641155226743531612008-10-22T22:06:00.000-04:002008-10-22T22:06:00.000-04:00Very nice--it looks like it's about finished!Very nice--it looks like it's about finished!Susan Beaucheminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12603806959873249854noreply@blogger.com
