Portrait of Tucker Hipps




 I was honored to be asked to do a portrait of this handsome young man, Tucker Hipps, who was tragically killed during a fraternity hazing incident.  His mother wanted it as a gift for his father on Father's Day.  It's a large piece, and we worked with the colors in her room to make sure it will look good over the fireplace.  It was such a pleasure to be able to do a piece like this for these parents to remember their son by.  As you can see, Dad was thrilled!


Here's what the client had to say:

We were blessed with a sweet baby boy who gave us 19 years of joy! Thanks for bringing him to life in a painting we can treasure of the rest of our lives.  A beautiful painting of a beautiful boy.  Thank you for being so extremely easy to work with and so wonderful.
