Painting by Yvonne Rabdau, 2009

April 25, 2009 at 6:09 PM

In August 2009 I had the pleasure of doing a photo shoot with Yvonne Rabdau, a photographer/visual artist living in the Hudson Valley.   Her intention was to take a series of photographs from which a portrait would be painted.

Well, it's done - and I'm amazed.   Yvonne is a spectacular painter - this is evidenced by the capturing of many of the violin's details.   I have posted both the original photograph and a link to the portrait on my Facebook page, and invite all of you to take a look at some really marvelous work...or if you'd like, simply visit Yvonne's website.

Happy Spring!
