Fun with Fine Art

Because of the way we live, we sometimes receive invitations for fun opportunities - such as modeling for painters or photographers. We hope you'll enjoy the following little vignettes!

Paintings by Francis Gace

Both Sarah and Gabriel have modeled for a Bainbridge Island painting group on multiple occasions. Here is a link to the group leader's webpage: http://francisgacestudio.com/2011/01/

In January, 2011, Sarah modeled a copy of Manet's painting, "Nana" at the group's request. Fracis Gace's rendition of the painting is shown above. The original painting by Manet is below.
