Mystery Artist Triple Header
(If you get stumped, click the portrait)
Victim Number One
I'd give you 3 to 1 odds that if you met this fellow in a bar, he'd be more than happy to buy ya a beer. He went and did something sneaky like changing his profile picture, but I notice it didn't improve his looks any. You may not know it from looking at him, but I must give him his due. He is ONE TERRIFIC ARTIST!
Victim Number Two
When I started to paint this old coot...Oops, I mean distinguished gentleman, I felt like I was looking in a mirror. Not that we resemble each other, but rather like someone I could sit around and swat flies with over a cup of coffee. Gonna meet him one day.
Victim Number Three
Doubt if you can guess this one, She's kind of a recluse. You seldom see her on the Blogger World scene anywhere.

This is Part one of the St. Pattie's Day Party. Proceed to Parts Two and Three.
Hey my pal in the rain forest...Wow, James. Completely flattered over here. Great job on the portrait. I think the last time anyone drew my likeness it was in art class. Great challenge my friend and you pulled it off quite well. Love the composition... for me, it's all about composition.
ReplyDeleteAnd the job you did on Dean and Sheila is so cool.
So this means I'll need to come to Costa Rica to see this for myself?
Great portraits.
ReplyDeleteI love your portraits James! The only one I recognize is Sheila! I guess I should get to know the other two....lol! Raise a glass of Guinness my friend..... Happy St. Patrick's Day!
ReplyDeleteHappy St. Patty's Day Jim! I'm enjoying your website and blogging. You've got some great artwork and know you will do well! Keep up the good work! Lanice
ReplyDeleteHappy St. Patrick's Day, James Parker:) I've never seen Douglas, but I definitely recognize Dean and Sheila. Great work, AGAIN!
ReplyDeleteI think all the portraits are GREAT and thanks for the tips - hope you keep on giving some of the basics for people like me who would like to learn to paint but never thought they could.
ReplyDeleteA pint of Guinness for you! :P
ReplyDeleteDouglas looks very cool! As for Dean, I've always loved his pose...he looks so smart and sly, looking over his glasses. And last but not least...how can you resist those dimples! Everyone one's favorite cutie!
Fun festivities you've got going on here!
How can you be so great at everything you do? And how do you keep all this so gorgous living in the rain forest? Your family of friends is so big, cause you have so much you share!
