watercolor portraits

Two portraits i worked on the last few weeks... for clients from Ecuador. the y are smaller format-- and straightforward in presentation. the goal is to capture "likeness'... without sacrificing watercolor technique. i love doing portraits. it's very satisfying to create a painting that resembles someone... and with that... creates an emotional attachment for them!
