Palette knife portraits by Ann Gorbett

Brian, Patrick, Erin, and Cathleen

Each 3" by 3"

Oil with a palette knife on canvas

My cousin Shelley asked me to paint portraits of her kids as a gift to her husband for their 30th wedding anniversary. I found this frame that had a mat with four cut opening each measuring 3" square so I used that as my inspiration to tie them all together.

Here are close ups of each portrait:

Barn Owl Portrait ...Palette Knife Painting by Peg Whitacre

Owls have always held a strange fascination for me and many other people.  Those big eyes that seem to look straight through us are beautiful and the ability to turn their heads seemingly clear around makes my neck hurt.  Since they are nocturnal creatures photographing them is nigh unto impossible so I have made very good use of wildlife refuges that specialize in treating and releasing injured birds and mamals if they are able to resume living on their own.  This painting is a 6x6 inch palette knife painting with the exception of those wonderful eyes and a few final touches with a brush.  The painting is available directly from the artist at pwhi!tacre@att.net or 865-932-6729.  Enjoy
