Self Portrait – Store Artist
24″ x 36″ – oil on linen
I painted this specifically to enter the annual Jerry’s Artarama portrait contest. It shows the bulk department of Whole Foods Market in the background. I was their store artist for over 15 years there. The painting didn’t win but it accidentally led me to find my high school love again after 33 years apart. We are like two peas in a pod and both work at home. I couldn’t think of anything better, really!
