Portrait of Za'keya

"Za'keya" - 8x8 in. Acrylic on canvas

Za’keya is a young girl from Detroit, MI that my wife hangs out with. Amazingly talented vocalist, actor, dancer, writer. I very much admire who she is and who she’s becoming.

portrait of young boy Joey

"Joey" - 11x14 in. Acrylic on canvas

My wife and I spent a week in Boston, MA recently babysitting these kids while their parents (friends of ours) were in Israel. They were a ton of fun to hang out with. Julia is 4 years old, Joey is 1. Julia and I painted together a couple times. She’s very talented, and she knows it. When we told her she would be a great artist someday she set us straight:  “I already am an artist, and I’m really good.”
