"BENJAMIN," 10135, daily painter portrait © Carol Nelson Fine Art





If this little cutie looks familiar, it's because I painted him as part of my 100 Portraits project earlier this year. When I posted his portrait on my blog back in April, a couple on the East coast purchased it.
Benjamin's family lives in New Mexico and they had not even turned on their computer yet. So I had to tell the first people that I would paint them another version of Benjamin because, to be fair, his family should have first dibs on the painting.
This painting is sold.

  8. OK, I love your abstract work Carol and have been very caught up in it of late when suddenly I turned a corner and saw Benjamin. Oh, I miss your portraits! So much talent, so little time. Well done!
