Although this doesn't relate directly to this current body of work, the portrait is a genre that has always run along side whatever I am doing artistically. I have this love hate relationship with the human race, and am always interested in how that manifests itself in the portraits of people I know, usually good friends. This is Meg, a graduate of the Syracuse University illustration department. I came across her at my open studio in October, and when I recently overheard her saying nobody had done her portrait before, I felt it my painterly duty to take on this task. I was excited as any guy would be to a girl’s first, artistically speaking of course.
