I do not believe that a true painter "has to be hungry." (from)
Since this is my profession, I have to earn a living for it (preferably with butter)), of course, not forgetting about creativity "for the soul."
But creativity also needs money, so I do not refuse to draw portraits to order.
For example, men from a reputable company decided to surprise their female colleagues in the form of their portraits in unusual, romantic images. They contacted me and brought photos.
Then my fantasy worked, because I know that every woman in her heart wants to be a princess or queen (based on age)). Last but not least, a duchess.
I tried to pick up the attire and image for all the ladies as accurately as possible, in the end everyone was satisfied. Ladies - with their portraits, men - a good gift, I - a good fee.
Since there are 10 portraits, I will break it into 2 parts, when there are a lot of images, the viewer gets tired and perceives them worse.
