Traditional Realism
by Gordon Lynch
Many
people prefer the formality of a posed portrait with controlled
lighting. If you decide to commission a portrait, I recommend choosing
a size that would be close to life size, and send me the largest
print that you have of that photo
(up to 8" x 10")
.
When you commission a portrait
from me you can rest assured that a complete physical likeness
is my ultimate goal.

This painting
of my son is an example of a half-figure portrait which can include
everything above the waist.
Some options in a portrait
may include complex backgrounds, detailed clothing or extra objects.
