I am just on my way home after a wonderful meeting with Jennifer, my mentor. We spent many hours talking about portrait painting, the business of commission work, visiting studios and painting!
I watched her work on a piece and it was magical. We went through my portfolio, discussing the updates I need to consider if I'm going to send it to an agent. We went through my photos to discuss how my work is progressing. We visited other portrait painters and talked about how they work and set up their studios. And we spent a rainy day painting together.
A terrific visit! I feel like I've learned so much. More will come out in future posts.
