Here is the most recent portrait painting from the Imago Dei portrait series. This one is of Father Lee Nelson the Rector of Christ Church Waco, which is an Anglican Church in Waco, Texas. This portrait was completed from a series of photos and sketches done with Father Lee several months ago. Hopefully I can revisit more of the images later and see if there is another portrait to do. He has many facets to him and this is just one. I have images of him at the coffee shop in less formal attire, where he is having a coffee and chatting, which is another way that he operates in very naturally. Some of the images are of him preaching from the pulpit and this one is him with the full robes in front of the stained glass and with his hand on the baptismal fount. This will likely be the most formal of the portraits and is done with pastel on Sennelier pastel card at 18” x 24”. Thanks to Father Lee for the opportunity to do this portrait.
