05/04/11 Commission of "Banjo" by Carol Morgan

This was a commission I completed last year when a friend had her son's photo taken professionally. I got permission from the artist and dove right in! Benjamin is lovingly called Banjo by his parents and is such a lovely child that I couldn't resist the urge to paint him. I think I was able to capture his intensity and thoughtfulness in this painting. It was a lot of fun to paint!
