Every year I do a portrait of my wife, Norene. This time I’ve tried to be free with my brush strokes. I’ve been teaching my art students about the techniques of the impressionists and decided do the painting the same way. The dark background on the left give a contrast to the face, creating a much more dramatic feel.

What a beautiful painting. The Colors are so lovely and so pleasing. Your best of Norere by far. Such a sweet painting of your gentle, beautiful Norene.
