Betsy and I knew each other quite some time ago when we painted together at Portrait Society, but I didn't know she was also a member of Punta Gorda VAC till this morning when she showed up as our model for the portrait session. Betsy was a very thoughtful lady. Unlike some of the models we had before who wanted to pose as effortless as possible, Betsy was very serious about posing as model. Before she came, she did quite a bit of thinking and decided to dress like a character in John Singer Sargent's painting. She got everything so perfect. I really appreciate her consideration. VAC portrait studio unanimously agreed that we want to paint her dressed like this a second time next week.
