The Idea

Large Scale Portraits of people with a lot of life experience that integrate the actual words of their stories into the lines and wrinkles of their faces.

Bill- Day 3

Well, here he is, William Lawson, aged 99.  I am so pleased with this painting and honored to have this experience with this special man. His kinds eyes were the most important part to me. Painting them was like getting to know him better. A face really does tell a deeply personal story. I am learning so much from this project and I am so touched by the people whose lives are so affecting.
