More Portraits from the "Familiar Faces" Show
Here are the rest of the paintings from the portraits show which includes paintings of people who have lived and/or worked in my little town long enough to become truly familiar faces. Here is Larry...

Paula , I love these paintings. You've done your town and it's people proud.
Paula, These are really great! I just love the colors and composition! Overall, so stunning!
you caught something intimate in each one - Camilla looks gorgeous!
I've really enjoyed these portraits Paula! Love their expressions! Great work!
Thanks everyone! I have to say, these models were so interesting to listen to. They each had quite a story to tell. What a nice way to connect, both as a group of painters, some of whom I had never met before and the models, all of whom I had seen but didn't really know anything about.
All good stuff Paula, Terrific professional, what can I say?
Paula, I love these. I know I always comment on your colors, but I have to again. Your color choices are unusual, but they work beautifully, and your line quality is very strong. I'm sure the subjects were very happy.
These are all great and I adore that one of Camilla!!
Hi Carolann, Deb, and Sandy, You guys are too kind...thanks for stopping by!
I love the vibrant colors you have associated with each portrait... seems like it might be attached to each personality.
Love your portraits but I really can't say which one I like best--they're all great!
Great expressions and feelings...
Who decided "who" got in the show and who didn't??? Did those whose images weren't included get their feelings hurt? ... or did the "paintees" do the opting in or out?
Wow... what a wonderful and creative way to memorialize folks from your part of the world. What a great idea and tribute! Love them all Paula!
Thanks Sheila and Marian! The artists determined which paintings they wanted to contribute to the exhibition although the paintings are supposed to be given to the models for sitting for us. One model, Garrison opted out of the exhibition, I believe because it was his wife who started the project but he was kind enough to pose for us. It was good for all of us to paint another portrait for practice.
i love Camilla's portrait - you have turned these out so beautifully - i can just imagine that your little town is going to love them!
Paula, these are wonderful! I love the vibrant colors, too, and the unique way you capture personality and character within each. Liz
Paula, your style is so Paula, and I just love it. I love seeing it play out in every different work you do, and there it is, your fingerprint/handwriting. Those gorgeous colors and your classic compositions just sock it to me. Congrats on being sooooo Good.
Fabulous!
You are one of a kind.
Happy Easter dearest!
I love your style Paula. This one is a favorite with the vivid red and green. Really nice!
