This mug shot was done in Karin Jurick's workshop. She's done many mugs. I don't paint a lot of portraits, and this is my first mug shot. Actually, I found it kind of fun!
I am an oil painter from Colorado Springs, Colorado. I retired in May 2008 after 28 years of teaching art and now have more time to pursue my passions of painting and traveling. My life has revolved around my love of art, starting with afternoon art classes while in kindergarten, a degree in art education, sharing my passion with hundreds of students yearly, and painting as often as I can. This journal is a combination of my daily paintings, my studio and plein-air work, my classes and workshops, and pieces from my travels past and present.
Most of my paintings are for sale either by using a PayPal button or through the Daily PaintWorks Auction. If you are interested in a piece from my early days of blogging, before I used PayPal, please email me and I'll add a button just for you!
My husband and I love to travel. If you do not hear back from me pretty quickly after a purchase, we are on a trip to a location where we don't have immediate access to the internet. It is advised to not always announce on social media that you'll be away from your home for a long period of time, so often I talk about my trips and travels after the fact. Don't fret, I'll get back to you as soon as I can about the purchased painting.

You look like a pro at it. Great job. I like the mug shots ... maybe one day I'll give them a try.
Well done, Pam. This is awesome and does indeed look like a mug shot that I see in the newspapers.
I hope you do more portraits, Pam! I am so impressed! Excellent work!!
I really liked the way you handled the paint in this Pam...can't wait to hear more about the workshop!
Nancy, thank you, but, not sure that I like looking at a pro at painting felons! Try it! What o you have to lose!?
Thank you Sherry. I did wonder about this guy as I stared at him while painting!
Hilda, Thanks so much. I am thinking about more. I enjoyed the challenge and change.
Thank so much Dana!
Pam, you did a great job on this one! It was so great that we could take the W. S. together!
