My
years of painting on the streets of New York taught me how to sketch
quickly and accurately under pressure." Pena points out that although
he is able to create a sketch quickly, a finished portrait will take
from 80 to 100 hours to complete.
"From the very start," Pena asserts, "I keep the client engaged in the process by asking for input. I submit the photos and sketches for review and approval, and the client suggests the best composition and pose for the portrait. I also invite the client to show the painting to family, friends, colleagues, and associates while it is in development. Keeping the channels of communication open produces satisfied clients."
