Borrowing a theme from the great American painter, Grant Wood, my demo for the Dallas portrait workshop was a fun challenge. I didn't want to just restate the feeling of Americana that "American Gothic" represents, but instead add a bit of modern humor to this classic. I managed to squeeze in an Iphone4 and our petite lap giraffe. I'm certain Grant Wood would approve.
The workshop was filled with many old friends and a few new ones. A huge thanks to Pat Kochan and Naomi Brotherton at Artisan's Studio Gallery for inviting me back. That crowd has a load of talent happening! http://www.artisansstudio.com/
