Portraits
It will help you to understand what I do if you will read this.

I have taken many years to develop the creativity and skill that I now possess. I had only one purpose in mind.
That purpose was to make you look fantastic!.

Each of the portraits below was created from an image I made photographically and then creatively enhanced.

You can also look fantastic if, after watching the slide show, you will call me at mobile 520-612-3230 and make your appointment to have me create one of my fantastic original portraits of you.
First off let me say that I am a photographically based portrait artist.
I create a photographic image then digitally manipulate this image to create a portrait.
What the customer receives is a finished portrait designed to be hung on a wall and displayed.
It will be mounted on a heavy back and matted for framing
It takes between two and four hours per face to do these adjustments.
Makeup is enhanced to optimize the features of the subject. Lines are softened and blended with the object of creating an illusion similar to what the oil painter would have done on a canvass.
So when a subject comes to my studio they should not be expecting a large open space with superfluous backdrops and lighting because I don't need this. Usually the image is created in front of a simple white backdrop. I then extract the image from the backdrop and do the adjustments and enhancements.
The finished image is the superimposed on various backgrounds so that the model can select the one that suits them best.
After the selection is made I then do the finishing touches and print the portrait in the size the subject has selected.
