Portrait in progress-- Contemporary Portrait demo by Kate Longmaid May 15, 2010

Kate Longmaid gave a wonderful demonstration of her portrait painting technique on May 15th.
In case you missed it, here are a few photos from the event.

We just got word that Kate has finished the portrait and
we will post that image as soon as we have it.

Finished self-portrait visible at left, new portrait of our volunteer model visible on right.

Also visible on the walls are some of the pieces in our People & Portraiture show.
Be sure to check that out before the end of July.

Full house!

Thanks again, Kate!
