"The black man is oil, the ballerina is acrylic on sandpaper, and the boy is pencil. She likes oil the best, but does a lot of nupastel because it takes the least amount of time."

My compliments to her!!! She is very gifted. Impressive that she works in many different mediums.

Thank you! I should also mention that she sculpts just as well too, but it’s a lot more expensive to cast. We have been married three years now, and I’m convinced that she has a gift to “see” how to represent things. Her portraits from middle school are better than a lot of professionals. Unfortunately we haven’t found a way for her to make money with art!

The best thing is that she is conservative and can make fun of garbage art with me. She never tells people that she’s an artist, especially not other artists, because people associate artists with liberal blowhards who will paint a blue square on a canvas and call it the Sistine Chapel.
