Painted this one of Sarah when she was 7. Try to go to at least one Penn State football game (“We Are!…Penn State!”) a year. Decided to have some father/daughter time, so Sarah and I went alone. Cruised around the tailgates before the game. Snapped this shot of Sarah. Right around this time, had seen an exhibit of Andrew Wyeth’s work. He has a painting that’s just a picture of boots in an ochre-colored field. This shot of Sarah reminded me of that painting. Liked the angle of her body in the shot. Over exaggerated the aerial and linear perspective. Nutzed around for a while with the facial details to get her likeness – pleased with how this one turned out.
