Jake, a baby's portrait in oils by Sandra Cutrer

Aren't these some of the cutest chubby-cheeks? I could just get a ton of sugary-kisses off of them if I could only get to see him in person! He happens to me my fourth cousin, and thanks to social media (FACEBOOK), I was able to "see" him. Without FB, I probably would have never gotten to know his Mom, or any of my other cousins in this wonderful family. When she posted this photo I had to paint it. Getting permission was easy, as his Mom so graciously allowed it. It has been awhile since I painted a person's portrait, as I mainly focus on animals. I am thrilled that I received a lot of positive feedback from FB admirers. He was a lot of fun to paint, and because of him, I hope to paint more baby portraits soon!

Blessings for a wonderful month of June, and many thanks for reading my blog.

About Me

As a young child, I always had a deep desire to draw and paint. All throughout elementary and high school I excelled in all of my art classes. Prompted by my high school art teacher,I attended our local Fine Arts Academy, and later college with a focus in art and art history. I have been blessed to be able to travel,visiting many art museums,including DC,NYC, and Paris,France. My work has been purchased by collectors all across the USA, and I am super pleased when my buyers tell me my work always looks better in person!

Although I refer to myself mainly as a self taught artist; over the course of many years I have taken private lessons and workshops from several talented artists in LA, TX, and AL.

I have worked with charcoal, graphite and colored pencils, pen and ink, and pastels, although preferring portrait studies in oils and acrylics. Being part Native American Indian, my heart is set on painting and learning as much as I can about these interesting people,their rich culture,and custom of using vibrant colors. I enjoy painting with heavy impasto,creating abstracts,and collages, that seem to give my paint brushes the freedom to pull me toward each new creation. My work is probably the most relaxing part of my life, and I am so glad to be back doing what I love! I believe a painting is in everything around us. We just have to look for what is truly there!
