Lori
Oil 12x12
All has been revealed as promised. This is a portrait of artist Lori Margulies from California. This is my entry in Karin Jurick's year end portrait challenge. 180 artists entered and were paired up so that each pair of artists painted each other. No one knew who they were painting until Karin published the paintings on her web site. You can see all the paintings including the fine portrait Lori did of my ugly mug. www.differentstrokesfromdifferentfolks.blogspot.com
