It's easy for portraitists to fall into the trap of using the same tried-and-true formulas for painting the usual categories of clients. Who could blame them when they are more likely to please the average client by using standard poses, backgrounds, lighting situations, and hand positions? If the objective is to create a tight, photographic rendition of the subject and generate as many commissions as possible, then formulas make the most sense. But how long can artists maintain their own interest and excitement about such repetitive activity? The answer: not long at all. |
