Preparing for an exibit

Dear friends and readers, 

I have finally gotten together enough courage to organize an exibition!:) Interesting fact is that with the decission to exibit the motivation to paint skyrocketed!!! I have been painting like crazy for the last two weeks and been quite impressed with the result, too:)

Our minds are interesting mechanisms!!!:)
I must say thank You to the book I read: "Magic of thinking BIG"

Painting famous people

After painting Angelina Jolie and sketching Kate Middleton, I decided to try some more famous people. It did turn out to be quite a daunting task, especially the choice of the person.

Here are my two choices:

Dagmara Legante, she is a famouse socialite in Latvija as well as Director of Communications at Luxury Boats North. Why Dagmara? Because was lucky to meet her in person in Cape Town while she was visitiong the country and I discovered what a fantastic personality Dagmara has! The portait is owned by Dagmara and I really hope she likes it;)

2. Justin Bieber, well, I guess we all know who Justin Bieber is:) Why Bieber? Because he had a concert in Cape Town in May and it left a big impression on the whole city- I was no different:) Bieber portrait is available for sale! You can buy this painting online or contact me directly to discuss other options.

Choosing the righ photo of the person was another challange! As I used photos that I could fing on the internet, they were not necessary the best quality, didn't give the right feeling or similar... So, photo choosing took me 30% of total time needed to do the painting. 

I hope You enjoy the results:)

Have a fantastic day!!!
