New Release: "Our Voyage"

My latest work celebrates the joy of travel, and how it's a metaphor for life, a good life, filled with expanding horizons, meeting new people, new experiences, and the moments we share on our voyage.

Prints of "Our Voyage" are available at the new release price, now through Friday August 4. The original is not available, as this painting was a commission.

On the Drawing Board: Commissioned Cruise Ship

I've done a few boats in paintings over the years, a yacht (Cross Country), a row boat (Suddenly, Last Summer) and now, the biggest of all a cruise ship!

This is a commissioned painting and the client wanted it to celebrate the sun, sea, and fun times they have on their voyages. He provided a photo of him and his partner looking at the ship, but didn't necessarily want an exact rendering of the photo. This allowed me to make a few changes for composition and 'Breyette-ify' it. 

On the Drawing Board: A Cruising Couple Commission

The painting I'm starting is a commissioned piece, it's sort of a blend between concept (where the client has an idea for a painting they want me to create) and portrait (where the client wants a painting of themselves, typically from a photo). This one the client contacted me with a concept and had a photo to go along with it, and while it is them in the photo, the are allowing me to make some alterations. It's just a few changes that make it work better as painting and let's me put my style and influence into it.

By the way, is it a portrait if they are facing away? :-)
