Portrait Painting Added to My Portfolio

For the past three weeks, I have been posing at The Center For Contemporary Art for an open portrait studio. This one is by Cecilly Sullivan. While sitting there perfectly still for hours, I had many wonderful conversations with the artists. It was a pleasure to work with The Center and I can't wait to return! Hopefully I will have more photos of finished work to share soon.

Candyland Photo Shoot With Your Warrior Poet

Photos by Gregory Robert Kahofer

These images are to be used in a project by my long time friend and art partner in crime. It is alway a pleasure and adventure working with Greg. Check out the links below to view some of his work.

Your Warrior Poet on Model Mayhem
Your Warrior Poet on You Tube

These are a few of my favorite captures from one of our August shoots. Images are untouched and are not in the same form as they will appear with Your Warrior Poet. I intentionally did not include too many with the abandoned Gingerbread Castle out of respect for the project they were taken for.
