| "When I first met my teacher Mr. Everett Raymond Kinstler, N.A., the country's foremost portrait painter
of five American presidents, (EverettRaymondKinstler.com),
he stressed an artist must make painting from life and nature the "highest priority". This has now become
an important part of my process. These head studies were all painted from life in three hours or less. Forever thanks to Mr. Kinstler — and to my gracious sitters." |

| JOHANNA INTRODUCES "PAINT A LIFE FOR A LIFE!" |
I am now offering these three-hour portraits (done only at my studio) in conjunction with a huge fundraising effort by KEEP A CHILD ALIVE to provide lifesaving AIDS medicines directly to children in Africa. It costs just $360 to provide one child or its parent with the antiretroviral medicine it desperately needs to keep it alive for one year. Therefore, this is the TOTAL cost of the sketch portrait. ONE HUNDRED PER CENT of this money goes to Keep A Child Alive. I donate the cost of my supplies and time. Please visit this amazing fund-raising effort spearheaded by Alicia Keys, Rod Stewart, Coldplay, Avril Lavigne and a whole host of other international musical talents at www.keepachildalive.org Please email to schedule an appointment. |
