About Robynn Stewart
Since portrait painting is my "specialty", I couldn't resist attempting to bring Sarah Heard's old black and white photo to "life". Upon beginning the painting suddenly this face jumped out at me on the canvas. I like to think a bit of her personality comes shining through her eyes!
