SITE MAP

Portraits drawn or painted from life or photo. McCool creates your image in a charcoal, pastel, acrylic, oil or mixed media portrait. "It has always fascinated me how character shines in peoples faces! In a portrait, the artist's challenge is to capture that elusive 'personality' as well as the physical attributes.", McCool, a portrait artist for over 30 years, explains.

Formal portraits are popular but this artist's favorites are more casual, catching the individual or group with a certain look or expression that is somehow definitive of their nature.

A vintage family picture, once a damaged fading memento, can become a priceless heirloom portrait.

Sitting for your portrait is the ideal. However, travel expenses would add to the cost, not to mention your time. A viable alternative is a portrait photo shoot (dress and pose as you would for sitting).

An original oil or acrylic painting of the bride or couple makes a unique, unusual, one-of-a-kind wedding or anniversary gift!

We have lived in Wild Wood Hollow N of Stephenville, TX (Timber Hills Addition ) since Christmas of '92. Mint and I built our home with our own hands, every board, nail, rock and bit of mortar, all the plumbing and wiring. It is still a work in progress. We built above the flood line, as a bridge over A Walk To Remember Creek. Our livingroom spans the creek and becomes a greenhouse on the E bank. We lived off grid with only solar and wind power until 2009. Our place is one of the most humble in the area but it does have some nice features. Here are some photos of our cross creek retreat and some of our animals.
