Cassie is my wife of just over a year. Even though I see her face everyday I find it the hardest to draw accurately. After multiple attempts over two months I painted this. And it still doesn’t look like her but it is the closest so far and for that I am grateful. I tried to capture her thick lips and inquisitive eyes that are always shrouded in mystery. The abstract background is her aura, one of fiery joy and ambition.
