Helene Balzarini
Another artist in the Portrait Project: Helene Pinnisi Balzarini. If artists could choose their names I would gravitate towards names like Pinnisi or Balzarini. These names just sound inherently artistic, right?
This is not finished but fairly far along. She put her left hand on the wall as I took a reference photo. I asked her to move it up slightly to better fit the composition. She left her painting apron on, which I like for the color element. Helene wears glasses but took them off. This was a good move. The glasses have a very distinctive look and I suspect in a few years a picture of her in those glasses would look dated.
