Portrait in Blue is a 16 x 20 oil portrait of my grandmother, painted from a favorite photograph. Wild white hair, big dark sunglasses reflecting blue, a vivid cobalt jacket — she is looking directly at the viewer with the kind of quiet confidence that makes you smile back. Warm amber light falls across her face against a deep dark background, the contrast giving the portrait its energy.
