5x7 oil on canvasLast year (or was it the year before) Karin Jurick created a blog called Different Strokes From Different Folks where artists joined together to participate in some inspiring challenges. The year end challenge is a fun exchange of artists painting artists! In an effort to thank Karin for her extraordinary efforts, Jill Polsby (thank you Jill!) requested we paint a portrait of Karin Jurick, 118 artists have participated and you can see the entire portfolio here.
Thank you Karin for DSFDF and creating a wonderful network of artists and friends!

Love this Angela! You did such a fine job. Great shading and very expressive eyes. Like that red on the side and the vertical format too.
Great job, Angela! I love the way you cropped it - well done.
Great piece!
Angela, you did a beautiful job on Karin's portrait. It is stunning!
Angela, such a wonderful crop on the portrait for Karin. Jill did a great job on such a large task.
Lovely, lovely, Angela! Great crop too.
I agree with every one here...love the cropping. The red border with your signature adds a special touch.
Great job Angela, I'm sure Karin will love it!
I love the composition. You were brave enough to give us Karin up close and personal. I think your signature on the side is very cool too!
What an interesting concept...imagine seeing 118 portraits of yourself...gotta be a strong person for that...
Love your portrait...
Great work, Angela. I like the close cropping.
Karin's an inspiration to so many of us.
Beautifully done, Angela. The eyes are expecially well done.
you did a great job, Angela.
the cropping is just right.
Like your color application too.
You really got her character and expression and the dignified way she was holding her head, Angela. She looks beautiful. Well done!
Angela, I seem to have a wrong email for you. If you have mine would you drop me a note so I'll have it when I need to tell you something? Thanks! (mine is clolsen at austin dot rr dot com )
Beautiful piece - I love how she's gazing into the distance... Thinking of the next challenge to post on her blog? ;-)
Oh, this is just GREAT - congratulations!
Way to change this one up - sign of a true artist. Very nice!
Way to go, Angela! Great crop and love the red background. Love the subtle touches in the eyes.
