Birthday Portrait

April 07, 2008

Someday I would like to do a fancier painting of Stephen. I did another initially that was more painterly/detailed, but somewhere along the way it lost it's Stephen-ness.

Also, if you are interested in reading Fablewood, the latest anthology I've been published in, it is now available online! Check it out at Ape and Amazon. I'm told it's best to order from the Ape Entertainment store, as they currently have it in stock.

I love your portrait - and the idea of portrait as gifts. Would you possibly mind contacting me (as I can't seem to find your e-mail address) about a small commissioned work for my husband for our anniversary? Sorry - hope I'm not being rude or anything with this post...
